  • Publication number: 20200330642
    Abstract: An implantable drug-loaded device, including a zinc-containing matrix and an active drug layer attached to the zinc-containing matrix. In the zinc-containing matrix per unit area, the content of an active drug is ? (?g·mm?2). The content of zinc corroded from the zinc-containing matrix per unit area in a guaranteed grade acetic acid aqueous solution at 8.3 vol % within unit time is p (?g·mm?2·min?1). The value of ? and the value of p satisfy the following relation: 0.1?15p+??3.5, where p is greater than or equal to 0.005 and less than or equal to 0.14. The zinc release rate of the implantable drug-loaded device is matched with the content of the active drug, so after the implantable drug-loaded device is implanted into a body, the zinc and the drug work synergistically to effectively inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation, and cannot kill cells and cause necrosis in tissues.

  • Patent number: 10751445
    Abstract: Provided are an iron-based absorbable and implantable medical device and manufacturing method thereof. The iron-based absorbable and implantable medical device (1) comprises a substrate (11), a degradable polymer layer (12), and an anionic surfactant layer (13) located between the substrate (11) and the degradable polymer layer (12). The anionic surfactant, by using the hydrophobicity thereof, can form a hydrophobic barrier layer in a solution to isolate a surface of the iron-based substrate (11) from a body fluid environment, thereby avoiding direct contact with an acidic environment resulting from degradation of the degradable polymer layer (12) at the initial and early stages of implantation, thus preventing severe local corrosion of the iron-based substrate (11).

  • Publication number: 20200206004
    Abstract: An absorbable stent includes an absorbable matrix. The matrix includes a number of wave-shaped rings connected by connection units and arranged in an axial direction. The wave-shaped ring includes a number of waves arranged in a circumferential direction. A peak, a valley and a support connecting the peak and the valley form the wave. Two adjacent wave-shaped rings and the connection unit form a closed side supporting unit. The matrix has a volume of [4, 40] ?m per unit blood vessel area. The absorbable stent has sufficient radial supporting strength for clinical applications. Moreover, the volume of the matrix per unit blood vessel area is less than volumes of existing stents. When the absorbable stent and existing stents are made of the same material, the absorbable stent has a shorter degradation and absorption cycle.

  • Publication number: 20180326127
    Abstract: An iron-based alloy absorbable and implantable medical device for internal fixation. A substrate includes an iron-based alloy and degradable polymer. The mass ratio of the iron-based alloy to the degradable polymer is between 1:4 and 4:1. The weight-average molecular weight of the degradable polymer is between 150000 to 3000000, and the polydispersity index thereof is between 1 and 6. The device further includes antioxidants. The iron-based alloy is used as a load-bearing framework or reinforcement phase of the device. By adjusting the mass ratio of the iron-based alloy to the degradable polymer and the combination mode thereof, the corrosion rate of the iron-based alloy in the late period of the implantation is accelerated, and the quantity of corrosion products poorly soluble in the iron-based alloy is reduced. Adding antioxidants to the device further reduces the quantity of the corrosion products poorly soluble in the iron-based alloy.
