A copolymer is capable of being immobilized on a base material while maintaining a high antithrombotic property persistently without having to introduce heparin or an anticoagulant drug to the surface thereof. The copolymer includes monomer unit A, monomer unit B, and monomer unit C, wherein monomer unit C has a mole fraction of 0.5-40% with respect to the total amount of all constituent monomer units.

A printable biodegradable polymer composite includes PGSA, a biodegradable photo-initiator and material selected from the group consisting PCL-DA and PEG-DA uniformly blended together. By adjusting the blending ratio, the elasticity, mechanical properties and degradation patterns may be adjusted for producing a tissue, organ or related bio-product by 3D-printing.

The special infusion pump for stem cells includes a liquor storage device and an infusion pipe. The inner wall of the liquor storage sac and the infusion pipe is provided with a layer of anionic protective film, to prevent stem cells in physic liquor from adhering to the inner wall of the liquor storage sac and the infusion pipe using mutual repulsion between anions. The infusion method includes: checking an infusion pump for integrity; closing a liquor stop clamp, injecting a mixed liquor of stem cells and medicine; covering a protective cap, opening the liquor stop clamp, closing the liquor stop clamp for use; connecting an external cone joint with a venous cannula, and then opening the liquor stop clamp; steadily placing the liquor storage sac on a horizontal plane using an auxiliary placing device; and after infusion ends, closing the liquor stop clamp, and disconnecting the external cone joint.

A copolymer has blood compatibility and antithrombotic properties of greatly suppressing protein adhesion to be usable even when in contact with a biological component such as blood for a long period of time, and a medical device uses the copolymer. The copolymer is characterized by including a hydrophilic unit and a hydrophobic unit, wherein the hydrophobic unit contains at least one type of a carboxylic acid vinyl unit, and the number of carbon atoms at the terminal of a side chain of the carboxylic acid vinyl unit is 2-7.
