ABSTRACT:
Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) and use thereof in methods are provided for reducing or preventing of adhesion formation between tissue surfaces, e.g., organ surfaces, in body cavities following surgical procedures and for drug delivery. HES may be used as an absorbable mechanical barrier alone or in combination with one or more anti-adhesion formation compounds for application to injured areas of tissues, e.g., organs, situated in body cavities such as the peritoneal, pelvic, pleural cavity, central nervous system and interligamentous space. HES may also be used as an intracavity carrier device for delivery of pharmaceutically active agents.
