Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Articles for increasing lubrication of a joint are described herein. The articles include resorbable, biocompatible particles having a glass transition temperature within a joint of less than about 37°C and capable of increasing fluid movement within the joint compared to synovial fluid, viscosupplemental fluid, or combinations thereof. A composition for increasing lubrication of a joint is also disclosed. The composition includes the resorbable, biocompatible particles and a carrier fluid. Methods of lubricating a joint and treating disease affecting the joint such as osteoarthritis are also described herein.
