Publication number: 20240131226Abstract: The invention is directed to a porous osteoinductive composite comprising osteoinductive granules embedded in a porous matrix, wherein more than 5% of the surface area of the osteoinductive granules is exposed from said matrix as determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging. Such a composite can suitably be used in a medical treatment, for example in a medical treatment of connective tissue and/or bone loss or defect.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2022Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Florence De Groot-Barrere, Nathan Kucko, Charlie Campion, Huipin Yuan, Kay Mohr, Wolfgang Ernst Weinmar, Annalena Anja Völker, Claudia Doberenz

Patent number: 11007087Abstract: Disclosed is a compression device for applying compression to a body part of a user. The compression devices comprises a sleeve for substantially covering a portion of the body part of a user, wherein the sleeve has an outer surface, an inner surface, an upper edge, a lower edge and two lateral side edges. In the transverse direction from the first lateral side edge to the second lateral side edge the sleeve comprises a first lateral side region, a central region and a second lateral side region. At least the central region of the sleeve comprises a main material having elasticity in at least the transverse direction of the sleeve. A maximum elongation in the transverse direction is from 5% up to and including 30% under a load of 10 N per cm width and a difference quotient of tension in transverse direction from 20% elongation to 25% elongation equal to or greater that 0.6 N per cm width per percent elongation.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Joannes F. H. M. Schuren, Guido Hitschmann, Edward L. Weaver, II, Kay Mohr

Patent number: 10058457Abstract: A compression device for applying compression to a body part of a user. The compression device has a sleeve with two lateral side regions and a central region in-between. The central region of the sleeve comprises a main material having elasticity in at least a transverse direction. A maximum elongation in the transverse direction is from 5% up to and including 30% under a load of 10 N per cm width and a difference quotient of tension in the transverse direction from 20% elongation to 25% elongation equal to or greater that 0.6 N per cm width per percent elongation. The device further includes a releasable closure system configured and arranged relative to the sleeve, such that, in use, upon closure of the closure system the sleeve is restrained and tightened about the body part of the user.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2014Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: Joannes F.

Publication number: 20170112675Abstract: A compression system for applying compression to a limb of a user comprising a sleeve for substantially covering a portion of the limb of a user, the sleeve being provided with a plurality of fastening bands in series between upper and lower edges of the sleeve and a lateral side region being configured and arranged such that it is trimmable. The system further comprising a secondary closure element, said closure element releasably attachable to the lateral side region. The closure element further being provided with either a single elongate pair of flaps or a plurality of pairs of flaps, each including an exterior flap overlying an interior flap, where opposing inner surfaces of the interior and exterior flaps comprise mechanical fastening elements adapted to releasably engage the inner and outer surfaces, respectively, of at least the lateral side region of the sleeve.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2015Publication date: April 27, 2017Applicant: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: GUIDO HITSCHMANN, KAY MOHR, ANJA N.
