1423 results about "Anti infectives" patented technology

Anti-infective means against or capable of defeating infection. This is a general term used in medicine to describe all medications or therapies that can cure or fight an infection. The term is general because there are so many types of infections, and a single anti-infective treats a specific sort of infection instead of treating them all.

Anti-infection compound preparation and its preparation method

The anti-infective medicine, including powder, mixture, aerosol, capsule, injection, suppository, ointment and microcapsule, is characterized by that on the theroretical basis of combining traditional Chinese medicine and modern immunology the immunoglobulin, effective components of Chinese medicinal materials which are extracted according to the compound prescription and auxiliary preparation are combined together organically, and undergone the fine preparation process to obtain a high-efficiency, safe, stable, environment-protecting type anti-infection medicine having no toxic side effect and having no drug resistance.

Triclosan-containing medical devices

PCT No. PCT / US96 / 20932 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 30, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 30, 1998 PCT Filed Dec. 23, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97 / 25085 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 17, 1997The present invention relates to polymeric medical articles comprising the antiinfective agents chlorhexidine and triclosan. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that the synergistic relationship between these compounds permits the use of relatively low levels of both agents, and on the discovery that effective antimicrobial activity may be achieved when these compounds are comprised in either hydrophilic or hydrophobic polymers. It is also based on the discovery that chlorhexidine free base and triclosan, used together, are incorporated into polymeric medical articles more efficiently. Medical articles prepared according to the invention offer the advantage of preventing or inhibiting infection while avoiding undesirably high release of antiinfective agent, for example into the bloodstream of a subject.

DECREASING GENE EXPRESSION IN A MAMMALIAN SUBJECT IN VIVO VIA AAV-MEDIATED RNAi EXPRESSION CASSETTE TRANSFER

Decreasing the expression of genes in a mammalian subject has multiple applications ranging from cancer therapy to anti-infective therapy or treatment of autosomal dominant genetic disorders. Yet, there is still a lack of efficient technologies to achieve that goal in mammalian subjects in vivo. The present invention relates to methods for decreasing gene expression by administering to a mammalian subject a recombinant adeno-associated viral vector in vivo with said vector comprising an RNA interference (RNAi) expression cassette whose RNA expression products directly or indirectly lead to a decrease in expression of the corresponding RNAi target gene. Upon successful transduction with the recombinant adeno-associated viral vector, the RNA expression products of the RNAi expression cassette will decrease the cellular concentration of the mRNA transcripts of the RNAi target gene, thus resulting in decreased concentration of the protein encoded by the RNAi target gene.

Apparatus and method for generation of a protective sleeve against infections for an artificial lead

An apparatus and method for generation of a protective sleeve against infections for a percutaneous lead through human or animal skin. The percutaneous lead (1) includes an extrusion port (7). When the lead extends through a body (3) of a patient, a pump (9) in operative connection with the lead is operative to move biocompatible liquid polymer material from a reservoir (10) through the extrusion port. As the polymer material comes in contact with body tissues of the patient it forms a protective sleeve against infections (5). The protective sleeve must be periodically clipped as it continuously or intermittently grows in an upward direction (6) outside of the body. The continual formation of the protective sleeve prevents the formation of a biofilm on the percutaneous lead that can cause the body tissue to separate from the percutaneous lead.

Mechanically anti-infective access system and method

A patient safety enhancing connection system and method for focusing the mechanical force of the fingers through a cannula to burst and / or wipe off bacteria to thereby mechanically reduce the number of microorganism at the connection interface. The system includes elastomeric septum which is under flow able compression having outer slitted septum face and configured to receive blunt cannula by penetration of the blunt cannula into the compressed septum. The septum face and the distal opening of the cannula are matched such that the edge of the inner wall of the cannula does not engage the septum face during the penetration process to minimize the potential transfer of microorganisms to the interior of the cannula, so that bacteria, if transferred, are preferentially transferred to the outer wall of the cannula where they are compressed, sheared or wiped off by the compressed elastomere and therefore do not reach the bloodstream.
