High strength biomedical materials and processes for making the same are disclosed. Included in the disclosure are nanoporous hydrophilic solids that can be extruded with a high aspect ratio to make high strength medical catheters and other devices with lubricious and biocompatible surfaces.

Described herein are coating compositions having unique mechanical and physical properties. The coating compositions are composed of zinc oxide nanoparticles, copper nanoparticles, a perfluorolkylsiloxane, and an organic solvent. The coating compositions can be applied to any article or any surface of an article where it is desirable to reduce surface wettability or prevent the growth of bacteria.

A cardiovascular graft is provided with highly reduced thrombogenicity. The cardiovascular graft is an electrospun non-woven mesh produced from supramolecular polymers with large diameter fibers. The cardiovascular graft can be implemented as a vascular graft into the human body to allow vascular bypass/reconstruction, or repeated venous access for dialysis treatment, as well as other disorders of small-diameter blood vessels.

Various embodiments of a mesh or implant system are provided for treating pelvic conditions such as incontinence, vaginal prolapsed, and other conditions caused by muscle and ligament weakness. Embodiments of the implants can include a material, substrate, configuration or coating adapted to provide immediate or timed release of various therapeutic agents or drugs to treat the surrounding tissue.
