Abstract

A formulation of foam thermosensitive hydrogel includes a thermosensitive hydrogel including synthetic polymeric material. The thermosensitive hydrogel has properties of changing phase from liquid to solid in high temperature and changing phase from solid to liquid in low temperature. The foam thermosensitive hydrogel having a predetermined surface tension is formed after mixing the thermosensitive hydrogel with air. The foam thermosensitive hydrogel has properties of increased volume and being semisolid. After injecting the foam thermosensitive hydrogel into a human body, the foam thermosensitive hydrogel changes phase form liquid to solid after temperature rises above LCST. The foam thermosensitive hydrogel injected into the human body becomes a solid, physical barrier between an injured site and surrounding tissue, thereby preventing adhesion from forming in the human body. A method of manufacturing foam thermosensitive hydrogel is also provided.
