82 results about "Thrombogenicity" patented technology

Thrombogenicity refers to the tendency of a material in contact with the blood to produce a thrombus, or clot. It not only refers to fixed thrombi but also to emboli, thrombi which have become detached and travel through the bloodstream. Thrombogenicity can also encompass events such as the activation of immune pathways and the complement system. All materials are considered to be thrombogenic with the exception of the normal state of endothelial cells which line blood vessels. Certain medical implants appear non-thrombogenic due to high flow rates of blood past the implant, but in reality all are thrombogenic to a degree. Various surface treatments are available to minimize these thrombogenic effects.

Compositions of polyacids and polyethers and methods for their use in reducing adhesions

The present invention relates to improved methods for making and using bioadhesive, bioresorbable, anti-adhesion compositions made of intermacromolecular complexes of carboxyl-containing polysaccharides, polyethers, polyacids, polyalkylene oxides, multivalent cations and / or polycations. The polymers are associated with each other, and are then either dried into membranes or sponges, or are used as fluids or microspheres. Bioresorbable, bioadhesive, anti-adhesion compositions are useful in surgery to prevent the formation and reformation of post-surgical adhesions. The compositions are designed to breakdown in-vivo, and thus be removed from the body. Membranes are inserted during surgery either dry or optionally after conditioning in aqueous solutions. The anti-adhesion, bioadhesive, bioresorptive, antithrombogenic and physical properties of such membranes and gels can be varied as needed by carefully adjusting the pH and / or cation content of the polymer casting solutions, polyacid composition, the polyalkylene oxide composition, or by conditioning the membranes prior to surgical use. Multi-layered membranes can be made and used to provide further control over the physical and biological properties of antiadhesion membranes. Membranes and gels can be used concurrently. Antiadhesion compositions may also be used to lubricate tissues and / or medical instruments, and / or deliver drugs to the surgical site and release them locally.

An intraluminal device implantable in a body lumen having an atheroma therein in the vicinity of a side-branch vessel includes a mesh-like tube of bio-compatible material formed with liquid-permeable window openings. The mesh-like tube has an expanded condition in which the tube diameter is slightly larger than the diameter of the body lumen in which it is to be implanted, and the tube length is sufficient to cover the atheroma and the side-branch orifice, and to be anchored to the body lumen around the periphery of the atheroma, and a contracted condition wherein it is sufficiently flexible so as to be easily manipulatable through the body lumen to the site of the atheroma. The mesh-like tube, in its expanded condition, has window openings of a size and distribution such as to structurally stabilize the atheroma and to keep embolic material originating from the atheroma in place on the wall of the body lumen, while diverting embolic material of predetermined size present in the blood flowing through the mesh-like tube from the side-branch orifice, without substantially impeding the blood flow, or increasing the thrombogenitic properties, of the blood flowing into the side-branch orifice.

Endothelialization of a bodily fluid or tissue-contacting, particularly blood-contacting, surface may be accomplished to render that surface substantially non-thrombogenic. Thrombosis may also be mitigated or eliminated by providing an eroding layer on the surface that results in the removal of any thrombus formation as the layer erodes. An implantable device may utilize at least one surface having a plurality of nano-craters thereon that enhance or promote endothelialization. Additionally, an implantable device may have at least one first degradable layer for contacting bodily fluid or tissue and disposed about a central core, and at least one second degradable layer between the first degradable layer and the central core. The first degradable layer has a first degradation rate and the second degradable layer has a second degradation rate which degrades more slowly than the first degradable layer on contact with bodily fluid or tissue.

Fixed-dried red blood cells (RBCs), and processes for preparing the same are disclosed. The red blood cells, upon reconstitution with distilled water or appropriate buffer: bind oxygen with native affinities, have partial deformability, present minimal thrombogenicity to platelets, and have oblated blood group antigens. The RBCs are preferably fixed by means of cross-linkers with aldehyde functions such as paraformaldehyde or glutaraldehyde either alone or in combination. Native oxygen kinetics are achieved by preparing the red blood cells with 1,6-diphosphofructose. Blood group antigens and chemical functions that render the lyophilized RBCs thrombogenic are occluded by chemically attaching polyoxyethylene glycol polymers to the surface membrane of the red blood cells. The cross-linked red blood cells are preferably died by lyophilization.

Surface modification of polymers via surface active and reactive end groups

Polymer surface modification method comprising the steps of first forming a surface of primary reactive end groups tethered to the polymer chain ends during fabrication of an article, and then modifying the reactive surface with bio-active molecules, hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, oligomers, or polymers to attain specific surface properties. Alternatively, a multifunctional coupling agent can be used to couple the primary reactive group to a second reactive group capable of reacting with a functional group associated with bio-active molecules, hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, oligomers, and polymers to attain specific surface properties. The invention involves bringing reactive endgroups to the surface with surface active spacer attached to the polymer chain end. The surface active spacer allows the migration and enrichment of reactive end groups to the surface during fabrication. The invention provides medical devices having a bio-interface with anti-thrombogenic properties, lubricity, selective adsorption, and antimicrobial properties.

The identification of these parameters or more particularly a pattern of parameters enables the diagnosis of a condition or event or the determination of the risk of development of a condition or event associated to the systemic vasculature. Still more particularly, the present invention is directed to a diagnostic device comprising a set of members wherein one or more of said members has or have specific or generic binding partners in a biological sample from an animal including human subject wherein the pattern of binding of the members to the binding partners is indicative, predictive or otherwise associated with a likelihood of a condition or event within the systemic vasculature. The absence of detection of specific or generic binding partners is also of indicative or predictive value. This is particularly important in cases where patients are unable to communicate advice to a physician on their own condition, such as during surgery or for patients in a coma. It is also useful in determining the risk of a vascular disease including cardiovascular, stroke, pulmonary, renovascular, cerebrovascular, thrombotic or generalized arterial or venous conditions or events in a healthy subject or a subject entering into an exposure to risk such as surgery or chemotherapy. The present invention is useful inter alia for the identification and / or quantitation of biochemical markers of conditions or events in the systemic vasculature such as heart disease, heart disorders, infections of the heart, stroke and thrombosis as well as the determination of a risk of development of these conditions including the absence of disorders or absence of risk of the development of a disorder.
