Of the 1.5 million emergency room visits each year in the United States due to flexor tendon injuries in the hand, over 30-40% result in peritendinous adhesions which can limit range of motion (ROM) and severely impact an individual's quality of life. Adhesions are fibrous scar-like tissues which can form between adjacent tissues in the body in response to injury, inflammation, or during normal healing following surgery. Currently, there is no widespread solution for adhesion prevention in the delicate space of the digit while allowing a patient full ROM quickly after surgery. There is a clear clinical need for a material capable of limiting adhesion formation which is simple to apply, does not impair healing, remains at the application site during motion and initial inflammation (days - weeks), and leaves tendon glide unencumbered. In this work, we developed dynamically crosslinked, bioresorbable supramolecular hydrogels as easy-to-apply lubricious barriers to prevent the formation of peritendinous adhesions. These hydrogels exhibit excellent long-term stability, injectability, and thermally stable viscoelastic properties that allow for simple storage and facile application. We evaluated interactions at the interface of the hydrogels and relevant tissues, including human tendon and skin, in shear and extensional stress modes and demonstrated a unique mechanism of adhesion prevention based on maintenance of a lubricious hydrogel barrier between tissues.
