Abstract

The aim of this study is to show the developments carried out by us with coated stents, expansion properties, furthermore the failures of the coatings. The coating was examined before and after expansion, paying special attention to the curves. The quality and the changing of the coatings were examined by different methods: optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and EDS analysis. The results show that the expansion to a higher pressure did not change the coating. Polyurethane coating was given to TentAur stents. The coatings were produced by a method of dipping. The sterile and dust free environment is crucial to produce a suitable coating. Electro-polished and non-electro-polished sheets and stents were used for these experiments. The quality and the changing of the coatings were examined by different methods after drying. The fatigue tests showed that the polyurethane coating had suitable adherence.
