Surface Treatment Process for Implantable Medical Device |
abstract |
A surface treatment process for an implantable medical device 1 which has a dielectric insulating layer 3, comprises the application of ions 4 onto said dielectric insulating layer. The ions 4 form an electrostatic charge and create a local electric field associated with the surface of the implantable medical 1 device when a liquid is applied. The ions increase the hydrophilicity or wetting of the implant surface to increase the penetration of the liquid onto the surface, thus allowing electrowetting to be performed without the application of an external electrostatic charge. The liquid may contain biomolecules such as peptides, proteins and nucleic acids which are attracted by the electric field generated by the ions. The implant 1 comprises a metallic or metallic alloy with a dielectric layer 3 formed of a metal oxide, glass, ceramic or fluoropolymer. The ions are applied to the implant by dipping, spraying or immersion the implant in a salt solution such as sodium chloride (NaCl) or magnesium chloride (MgCl2). Plasma vapour deposition may also be used. The implant is then dried. The coated implant is then subjected to an electrolytic liquid such as tissue fluid, saline or a carrier fluid. |
