Implantable medical product, comprising a basic body and an imidazole derivative in the form of its free base; wherein said basic body has on its polymeric surface a layer containing the imidazole derivative as an active ingredient, which displays an antithrombogenic, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory or antiadhesive effect, or a combination thereof.

Methods, devices, and kits, related to embodiments for uniformly coating at least one inner surface of a capillary with at least one anticoagulant compound.

Methods are provided to produce optimal fractionations of charged keratins that have superior biomedical activity. Also provided are medical implants coated with these keratin preparations. Further provided are methods of treating blood coagulation in a patient in need thereof.

A coating for a medical device is described. The coating comprises: a base layer comprising a protein; and a polymer layer disposed on the base layer. The polymer layer comprises a polymer having a plurality of hemocompatible groups. Each hemocompatible group is independently selected from a sulfonic acid group, a sulfonamide group, a sulfamic acid group, a hydrogen sulfate group and a conjugate base thereof. Also described is a medical device comprising the coating, and uses and methods involving the coating and the medical device.

Methods are provided to produce optimal fractionations of charged keratins that have superior biomedical activity. Also provided are medical implants coated with these keratin preparations. Further provided are methods of treating blood coagulation in a patient in need thereof.

An antithrombogenic metallic material includes a metallic material whose surface is coated with a coating material, the coating material containing: a phosphonic acid derivative or a catechol derivative; a polymer containing, as a constituent monomer, a compound selected from the group consisting of alkyleneimines, vinylamines, allylamines, lysine, protamine, and diallyldimethylammonium chloride; and an anionic compound containing a sulfur atom and having anticoagulant activity; the polymer being covalently bound to the phosphonic acid derivative or the catechol derivative, the phosphonic acid derivative or the catechol derivative being bound to the metallic material through a phosphonic acid group or a catechol group thereof, wherein the abundance ratio of nitrogen atoms to the abundance of total atoms as measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) on the surface is 4.0 to 13.0 atomic percent.

A bioprosthetic valve and a preparation method thereof are provided. The bioprosthetic valve includes a stent and a functional biological tissue material attached to the stent. The functional biological tissue material is a biologicaltissue covalently bonded with an active group and a functional molecule or group. The method improves the anti-thrombosis and anti-calcification functions by covalently modifying the surface of a biological valve using an active group and a functional molecule or group with a substantial degree of grafting. The new bioprosthetic valve does not include aldehyde residues, exhibits excellent biocompatibility, optimal mechanical properties, high stability, and can meet the performance requirements of a biological valve delivered through a catheter.

A medical device may be coated with a therapeutic composition that includes a direct oral anticoagulant. An illustrative drug coating composition may comprise an excipient including polylactic acid (PLA), poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), or poly(vinylidene fluoride)-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP) and a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC). The illustrative drug coating may be applied to an outer surface of a medical device.

An inhibitor of FXII/FXIIa for the prevention of the formation and/or stabilization of thrombi during and/or after a medical procedure performed on a human or animal subject comprising contacting blood of said human or animal subject with artificial surfaces, wherein said inhibitor of FXII/FXIIa is administered before and/or during and/or after said medical procedure.

A multi-layer tubular woven construct is useful as a hose that transports a fluid or a powder or protects linear bodies such as wires, cables and conduits, as a tubular filter, or as a base material of a vascular prosthesis. In particular, a tubular woven construct in a tubular configuration woven by interlacing warp and weft yarns contains at least in part an elastic fiber yarn having a filament fineness of 1.0 dtex or more, the weft yarn containing at least in part a microfiber yarn having a filament fineness of less than 1.0 dtex.
