Coatings for implantable devices or endoluminal prosthesis, such as stents, are provided, including a method of forming the coatings. The coatings can be used for the delivery of an active ingredient or a combination of active ingredients.

Primer coatings for stents with oxide, anionic, or hydroxyl surface moieties

Coatings for implantable devices having a chromium oxide layer and a method of forming the same

Primer coatings for implantable devices or endoluminal prosthesis, such as stents, are provided, including a method of forming the coatings. The primer coatings can include a material with a high content of hydrogen bonding groups, such as some types of epoxy polymers and melamine formaldehydes. Coatings subsequently disposed over the primer coating can be used for the delivery of an active ingredient or a combination of active ingredients.

Implantable devices comprising cyanoacrylate primer coatings

Primer coating of inorganic material for implantable devices

Isocyanate coatings for implantable devices and a method of forming the same

High amine content polymer coatings for implantable devices and a method of forming the same

Coatings, particularly primer coatings, for implantable devices or endoluminal prosthesis, such as stents, are provided, including a method of forming the coatings. The coatings can be used for the delivery of an active ingredient or a combination of active ingredients. The primer coatings include diacrylates and polyacrylates.

Coating for implantable devices and a method of forming the same

A method is provided for forming a polymeric coating on a stent. The method can comprise applying a prepolymer or a combination of prepolymers to the stent and initiating polymerization to form a polymeric coating on the stent. The coating material can optionally contain a biologically active agent or combination of agents.

Methods for forming polymeric coatings on stents

The invention provides bioactive compositions and methods of delivery for ameliorating a vascular diseased state, particularly for the management of stenosis or restenosis following a vascular trauma or disease.

Medicated stents for the treatment of vascular disease

A composition comprising an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer and a dimethyl acetamide solvent is provided for forming a coating on prostheses such as stents. The composition can include an active agent or therapeutic substance. Methods are also provided for coating the stents.

Ethylene vinyl alcohol-dimethyl acetamide composition and a method of coating a stent

This invention provides a method of forming a polymeric coating for a stent. The method can comprise applying a prepolymer or a combination of prepolymers to the stent and initiating polymerization to form a polymeric coating for the stent. The coating material can optionally contain a biologically active agent or combination of agents.

Methods for polymeric coatings stents

A glycocalyx-like material is applied to a stent in order to mimic the outer surface of the cells lining arteries and veins to prevent thrombogenesis. The glycocalyx material is applied over a base layer of a fluorocarbon that is applied directly to the stent surfaces.

Stent with anti-thrombogenic coating

An implantable device or endoluminal prosthesis, such as a stent, having a sheath and a method of forming the sheath are provided. The sheath may be used for the delivery of an active ingredient. The sheath may have a selected pattern of interstices for allowing a fluid to seep through the sheath in the direction of the pattern created.
