  • Medical device with plasma cross-linked hydrophilic coating
    Patent number: 7217769
    Abstract: A medical device with a hydrophilic and lubricious coating, wherein the coating includes a hydrophilic polymeric unit layer deposited on the medical device and cross-linked with a plasma deposited double bond monomer. The hydrophilic polymeric unit can include ethylene oxide with one or more primary or secondary alcohol groups or glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronic acid, and the double bond monomer includes monomers containing at least one double bond, preferably a C?C, C?N or C?O bond, including N-trimethylsilyl-allylamine, ethylene, propylene and allyl alcohol.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 16, 2004
    Date of Patent: May 15, 2007
    Assignee: BioSurface Engineering Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Paul O. Zamora, Meng Chen, Shigemasa Osaki, Ting-Ting Hsieh, Ray Tsang
