PIEZOELECTRIC SHEAR-THINNING MATERIAL COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR USE
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250090664 titled 'PIEZOELECTRIC SHEAR-THINNING MATERIAL COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR USE
Original Abstract Submitted
methods and compositions are disclosed herein to define a suite of shear-thinning hydrogels exhibiting piezoelectric properties. the piezoelectric materials described can be injected percutaneously or via transcatheter vascular route into a target environment for the locoregional stimulation of cells or tissues using wireless impulses as actuation mechanisms. these external stimuli introduce either an electrical or mechanical response in the implanted piezoelectric materials for medical interventions including tumor ablation, drug delivery, electroporation, chemo-electroporation, neural stimulation, wound healing, cardiovascular applications and musculoskeletal pain management.
