Title: Modification of medical prostheses
Usefulness: Modification of medical prostheses
Summary: For coating medical device such as catheter selected from peripherally insertable central venous catheter, dialysis catheter, long term tunneled central venous catheter, peripheral venous catheter, short-term central venous catheter, arterial catheter, pulmonary artery Swan-Ganz catheter, urinary catheter, long term non-tunneled central venous catheter, peritoneal catheter, and ventricular catheter; long term urinary device; tissue bonding urinary device; penile prostheses; vascular graft; extravascular graft; urinary stent; vascular catheter port; wound drain tube; drug delivery system; neurotransmitter; epidural catheter; cerebrospinal fluid draining system; hydrocephalus shunt; pacemaker system; implantable stimulator; implantable infusion pump; ventricular bypass assist device; tissue expander; implantable pulse generator; maxillofacial implant; mandibular implant; contraceptive tubal occlusion device; contraceptive intrauterine device; artificial anal sphincter; artificial urinary sphincter; vascular dilator; extravascular dilator; intravascular stent; extravascular stent; small joint replacement; temporary joint replacement; urinary dilator; heart valve; orthopedic implant; heart assist device; mammary implant; dental device; pacemaker; defibrillator; hip prostheses; knee prostheses; spinal prostheses; shoulder prostheses; joint prostheses; fracture fixation device; external fixation pin; and intramedullary nail, screws, plate, rod and cage (all claimed) to inhibit growth of bacterial and fungal organisms.
Novelty: Coating medical device to inhibit growth of bacterial and fungal organisms involves applying composition containing therapeutic agent, glycerol, acidic and matrix component, and composition containing cyanoacrylate in layers
