Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of making and using compositions comprising medical devices, particularly medical devices made from resorbable polymers.

Abstract: A biodegradable nasal splint comprising a tubular component at least partially defining a hollow passageway. The tubular component may be formed from a degradable material comprising a copolymer comprising glycolide subunits, trimethyl carbonate subunits, and caprolactone subunits. The degradable material may further comprise from about 0.01% to about 30% chitosan, by weight of the degradable material. The biodegradable nasal splint may further comprise a therapeutic agent such as chitosan applied to one or more surfaces of the nasal splint Also, a biodegradable nasal splint comprising a tubular component at least partially defining a hollow passageway and formed from a degradable material. The degradable material may comprise at least about 95% chitosan, by weight of the degradable material.
