Abstract
In the present research work, an idea of implanting self-expandable bioresorbable sinus scaffold system and its development strategies have been portrayed in order to treat sinusitis caused into the tissue linings of the sinuses. The device utilized here is made up of bioresorbable material which is a kind of co-polymer which is an inactive ingredient. This device is additionally coated with an anti-inflammatory drug with another inactive ingredient, which helps to elute or release the drug in a controlled manner and degrade the device over a period prior to dissolving. By performing in vitro test, it has been indemnified that, this drug coated device is relevant and promising to treat sinus inflammations.
