Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a central venous catheter with a coating. Background Art

[0002] Central venous catheters are a common medical device and a type of intravascular catheter that is placed in large veins. They are inserted into the patient's veins, such as the internal jugular vein, through puncture technology to infuse the patient. They have been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as central venous pressure monitoring, blood volume maintenance, total parenteral nutrition, rescue drugs and therapeutic drug infusions, and are especially suitable for patients who require long-term or multiple blood and drug infusions. It can be left in the vein for a long time, which not only avoids the pain caused by repeated venous punctures to patients, but also greatly facilitates medical staff and reduces medical costs. It also has many advantages such as simple operation and easy use.

[0003] However, while existing central venous catheters provide convenience to doctors and patients, they also have some problems. For example, bacterial infection is prone to occur during the catheter indwelling process, causing different types of bacteria to adhere to and proliferate on the catheter surface to form bacterial biofilms, which not only increases the chances of venous infection and phlebitis, leading to medical accidents and seriously endangering the patient's life safety, but also greatly limits its application space.

[0004] CN116334174A mentions that biofilm formation is a mechanism by which bacteria colonize and develop resistance to antimicrobial drugs. Scanning transmission electron microscopy shows that almost all central venous catheters are colonized by microorganisms embedded in the biofilm matrix. The most common pathogens isolated from catheter biofilms are Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecalis.

[0005] Most patients who undergo central venous puncture are critically ill, and the puncture site is mostly loose connective tissue, mainly blood vessels, nerves, and fascia, which is very prone to microbial infection, leading to severe catheter-related bloodstream infection. Most of these infections are caused by bacteria on the skin surface proliferating and deriving along the central venous catheter, then invading the deep veins, spreading through the blood, and causing systemic bacteremia or even sepsis. Once a patient is infected, the condition is critical because most pathogens are drug-resistant bacteria that cause nosocomial infections. These bacteria are resistant to multiple antibiotics and are prone to misdiagnosis.

[0006] Preventing the formation of biofilm is a key step in preventing catheter-related infections, and the most direct and effective method is to perform antibacterial modification on the surface of the central venous catheter so that microorganisms cannot adhere, reproduce, and form biofilms on the catheter surface. To solve this problem, the existing technology provides some solutions: CN107802941B proposes to load anti-infective drugs such as penicillin or macrolide on the main body of the catheter, but this method will face the problem of bacterial resistance; CN111228576A proposes to use chlorhexidine as an antibacterial agent, but it has the safety risk of small molecule precipitation. In addition, CN106110471A discloses a method of adding zirconium phosphate-loaded silver antibacterial masterbatch to the surface of the tube body, but silver ions, as heavy metals, easily enter the human body, causing risks.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new technology to achieve long-lasting antibacterial, non-toxic antibacterial central venous catheters. Summary of the invention

[0062] wherein n is selected from an integer of 8-15, and m is selected from an integer of 2-6;

[0063] In some embodiments, the polymerizable guanidine monomer is a compound containing a biguanide group, which is mainly obtained by reacting the biguanide group with a double bond-containing monomer structure containing a desired connecting group, preferably by a reaction on the biguanide group (such as general formula I) or by a reaction on the end group of the biguanide main chain (such as general formula II).

[0066] With reference to the above implementation contents, in order to make the technical solution of the present application more specific, clear and easy to understand, the technical solution of the present application is now exemplified. However, it should be noted that the following embodiments are listed to illustrate the present invention. Those skilled in the art can understand that the example is only an illustrative description and not an exhaustive description.

[0083] Weigh 2g of the above copolymer 1 and 20g of polyethylene glycol-based waterborne polyurethane acrylate and dissolve them in 95g of deionized water / isopropanol mixed solvent. Stir for 18h in a dark place to dissolve to obtain a colorless clear coating. Wipe the surface of the central venous catheter with dust-free paper dipped in 75% ethanol and dry it. Immerse the catheter in the barrel containing the above coating, let it stand for 1min, pull the catheter at a speed of 0.5cm / s, and irradiate the catheter with the coating with ultraviolet light for 5min for curing. The ultraviolet light intensity is 10mW / cm2 and the catheter rotation speed is 4rpm. The cured sample is placed in the air to dry.

[0084] Embodiment 2:

[0085] <Preparation and curing of antimicrobial coating composition 2>

[0086] The steps are the same as in Example 1, except that copolymer 1 is replaced by copolymer 2, and the hydrophilic polyurethane is replaced by a carboxyl water-based polyurethane. Urethane acrylate.

[0087] Comparative Example 1:

[0088] <Preparation and curing of antimicrobial coating composition 3>

[0089] The steps are the same as those in Example 1, except that copolymer 1 is replaced by copolymer 3.

[0090] Comparative Example 2:

[0092] The steps are the same as those of Example 1, except that copolymer 1 is replaced by copolymer 4.

[0093] Comparative Example 3:

[0094] <Preparation and curing of antimicrobial coating composition 4>

[0095] The steps are the same as in Example 1, but without the hydrophilic polyurethane.

[0096] <Testing antibacterial properties>

[0097] Cut the ethylene oxide sterilized catheter into 0.5×0.5cm samples, put them into a sterile 48-well plate, with the coating facing up, add 10μL of bacterial solution with OD600=0.01, cover and place in a 37℃ constant temperature incubator for 3h. Add 500μL of liquid culture medium to soak the sample, shake it thoroughly and soak it for 10min, collect bacteria by ultrasound (150w) for 1 minute (10 seconds of ultrasound each time, stop for 5 seconds), and apply the plate after graded dilution at 1:100 and 1:500. After overnight incubation in a 37℃ constant temperature incubator, take pictures and count the number of colonies on the plate.

[0098] The catheter was tested for its antibacterial effect against Escherichia coli (E.coil) and Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus). The number of colonies was counted using the plate coating method and compared with the uncoated catheter to verify its antibacterial effect. The test results are shown in the following table.

[0099]

[0100] It can be seen from the experimental data that the antibacterial coating of the present invention has excellent antibacterial properties and can achieve very good antibacterial effects on both Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria. However, due to the lack of photoinitiator and hydrophilic polyurethane in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, respectively, the antibacterial effect of the coating may be reduced due to reduced coating bonding.

[0101] <Testing firmness>

[0102] The firmness test was carried out on Implementation 1 and Example 2 as well as Comparative Examples 1-3. The firmness test method referred to TCSBME021-2020 "Evaluation Method for Lubrication Performance of Hydrophilic Coating of Catheter": The test was carried out using a friction tester in a water bath environment of (37±2)°C. The tube body was kept vertical, the sample was immersed in water, and the sample was clamped with a silicone sheet with a hardness of (55±2)A. The clamping force was 3N, the running speed was 10mm / s, the immersion time was 60s, the friction times were 5 times, and the test distance was 100 mm.

[0103] Test results such as Figure 5-9 shown.

[0104] From the experimental data, it can be seen that the antibacterial coating of the present invention has excellent coating firmness, and the friction coefficient remains close to the initial state without obvious increase after 5 friction cycles. However, due to the lack of Norrish I type / Norrish II type photoinitiator and hydrophilic polyurethane in Comparative Examples 1, 2 and 3, the coating firmness is reduced, which is specifically manifested in that the friction coefficient increases with the number of friction cycles.
