Productos sanitarios con propiedades de sellado

Un producto sanitario que comprende: un sustrato fibroso; y un cuerpo que comprende el producto de reacción de un componente precursor nucleófilo y un componente precursor electrófilo; en donde el componente precursor nucleófilo comprende colágeno o trilisina y el componente precursor electrófilo comprende un polietilenglicol de múltiples ramas funcionalizado con grupos N-hidroxisuccinimida; y en donde el producto sanitario tiene un espesor de aproximadamente 0.1 mm a aproximadamente 0.5 mm. The present disclosure relates to a medical device and methods of using the same. In embodiments, the medical device may be a buttress formed of nucleophilic buttress components and electrophilic buttress components which react to both form the buttress and provide the buttress with self-sealing capabilities after a staple or some other fixation device is placed therethrough, thereby enhancing its hemostatic properties. In other embodiments, the medical device is a hernia patch formed of a fibrous substrate, nucleophilic precursor components and electrophilic precursor components.
