Zusammenfassung:The present invention is generally directed to cannabinoid medical carriers that are effective in the treatment of internal wounds, such as brain or spinal cord injury. One embodiment comprises a application device consisting of a dissolvable biological carrier that contains a cannabinoid, which is readily adsorbed in vivo and is capable of conforming to the size and shape of the surface of the contusion site of a neurological trauma. The various elements of the medical carrier can be saturated with cannabidiol or other phytocannabinoids by diffusion under sterile conditions to achieve medicinal concentrations. The carrier can be applied through open or semi-open surgical procedures, or epidural or by subarachnoid/intrathecal delivery.
