titleOfInvention | Method and apparatus for coating a medical device by electroless plating |
abstract | Methods and apparatus for coating surfaces of medical devices by electroless plating are disclosed. In one embodiment, the invention includes a coating method in which a therapeutic agent and a plating material are plated onto the surface of the medical device by an electroless plating chemical reaction. In another embodiment, a coating method is disclosed in which the coating is formed by suspending a therapeutic agent in a soluble plating solution and plating a plating material onto the medical device by electroless plating wherein the plated material contains the suspended therapeutic agent. In another embodiment, a coating method is provided wherein the coating is formed by initially bonding a therapeutic agent to a plating material, and then plating the bonded therapeutic agent/plating material onto the medical device by electroless plating. In another embodiment, an additive is introduced to the soluble plating solution to regulate the chemical reaction of electroless plating. In another embodiment, a coating method is provided wherein the surface of the medical device is treated, e.g. creating a porous surface layer, to increase the amount of the therapeutic agent that may be plated onto the medical device by electroless plating. The coating is formed by plating a therapeutic agent into and/or onto the porous surface layer. These methods and apparatus are used to apply one or more coating materials, simultaneously or in sequence. In certain embodiments of the invention, the coating materials include therapeutic agents and cationic drugs. |
