Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:The subject of the invention is a degradable intrauterine system for the release of a haemostatic agent into the uterine cavity, comprising a degradable copolymer-based polymer matrix comprising at least one A and B block copolymer, and a haemostatic agent intended for release into the uterine cavity, wherein: block A is a polyester; block B is a poly(oxyethylene) (PEO); the weight-average molecular mass of the blocks B is a greater than or equal to 50 kDa; and the ethylene oxide unit/ester unit mole ratio is between 0.5 and 5. The invention also relates to a haemostatic agent for use in the treatment of uterine haemorrhage, wherein the haemostatic agent is delivered into the intrauterine cavity by means of a degradable intrauterine system according to the invention.
