A system for infusing a gas into a vascular access device may include a catheter interface, which may include a distal end, a proximal end, and a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end. The system may also include a connector disposed on an outer surface of the catheter interface. The connector may be configured to couple to a reservoir. The reservoir may include a housing, which may include an opening and an impermeable wall. The opening may be configured to couple to the connector of the catheter interface. The reservoir may also include a molecular precursor to a gaseous agent that is suspended in a hydrogel and disposed within the housing. The gaseous agent may be antimicrobial, antithrombogenic, or both antimicrobial and antithrombogenic.
