Abstract: The invention relates to a balloon for medical devices, in particular for catheters used in angioplasty, comprising a polyamide copolymer material characterized in that said polyamide copolymer material is represented by the general formula (I): HO—(PF—OOC—PA-COO—PF—COO—PA)n-COOH in which PA is a polyamide segment and PF is a diol segment comprising dimer diols and/or corresponding OH-terminating diol polyesters and n is a number between 5 and 20.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bone implant device, particularly for dental and orthopedic prosthesis on the vertebral column, having a quicker osteo-integration compared to the prior art devices. Particularly, the present invention relates to an implant device, of metal or polymer nature, a layer of hyaluronic acid being chemically bound on the surface thereof, for use in applications in contact with the bone, with activity of stimulating the bone tissue growth, as well as a process for preparing the same.

Abstract: This invention relates to a vascular stent. More particularly, this invention relates to a stent comprising a coating based on a hyaluronic acid polymer in which the said hyaluronic acid polymer is an ester derivative of the hyaluronic acid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a drug eluting medical device comprising the application to a stent of a polymer having functional groups capable of chemically binding biological molecules, characterised in that said application is carried out in a single step by means of cold plasma methods. Moreover, the invention also relates to a medical device obtained therefrom.

Abstract: An inflatable balloon structure (10) for catheters, such as a catheter for angioplasty or for depositing an endolumenal prosthesis or stent in a duct, for example, a vascular duct, the balloon structure being of predominant longitudinal extent with a proximal end and a distal end, and being suitable for performing an expansion in an object to be dilated, the balloon comprising a wall which has, transverse the longitudinal extent, at any point, an annular cross-section delimited externally by an outer surface which, at least in an intermediate portion thereof, is suitable for coming into contact with the object to be dilated, and internally by an inner surface which delimits an inflation chamber, in which at least one wall cavity (19) is provided in the wall and is formed within the annular cross-section which delimits the inflation chamber so as to be disposed between the outer surface and the inner surface, the cavity extending without interruptions and/or openings, longitudinally relative to the balloon str
