| 20090306624 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR DELIVERING ACTIVE AGENTS TO THE OSTEOMEATAL COMPLEX - Described here are devices, methods, and kits for treating sinusitis and related respiratory conditions by locally delivering active agents to the osteomeatal complex over a sustained period of time. The devices may be passively fixed within the osteomeatal complex and/or include one or more features that actively fix it within the osteomeatal complex. The devices may optionally include a portion that extends into a sinus ostium, sinus cavity, and/or the nasal passage to deliver an active agent. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20090238859 | SINUS DELIVERY OF SUSTAINED RELEASE THERAPEUTICS - The invention provides biodegradable implants for treating sinusitis. The biodegradable implants have a size, shape, density, viscosity, and/or mucoadhesiveness that prevents them from being substantially cleared by the mucociliary lining of the sinuses during the intended treatment period. The biodegradable implants include a sustained release therapeutic, e.g., an antibiotic, a steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, or both. The biodegradable implants may take various forms, such as rods, pellets, beads, strips, or microparticles, and may be delivered into a sinus in various pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090156980 | DEVICE AND METHODS FOR TREATING PARANASAL SINUS CONDITIONS - Described here are paranasal sinus devices for treating paranasal sinus conditions. The devices include a cavity member, ostial member, and nasal portion. One or more of the cavity member, ostial member, and nasal portion may deliver an active agent for sustained release to treat the paranasal sinus condition. Exemplary paranasal sinus conditions are sinus inflammation due to functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and rhinosinusitis. | 06-18-2009 |
