摘要:
The invention concerns an endovascular implant comprising a biodegradable material and having a tubular main body which is open at the ends and which is dilatable from an unexpanded condition into an expanded condition. The implant is so designed that when the implant in the expanded condition is subjected to a radially acting compression pressure in the range of between 5 and 30 kPa (0.05-0.3 bar) a cross-sectional area of the implant is reduced to 70% or less of the original cross-sectional area, or an internal volume of the implant is reduced to 70% or less of the original internal volume.

An endoprosthesis, in particular an intraluminal endoprosthesis such as a stent, comprises a carrier structure, which includes at least one component comprising a magnesium alloy of the following composition: Magnesium: between about 60.0 and about 88.0% by weight Rare earth metals: between about 2.0 and about 30.0% by weight Yttrium: between about 2.0% and about 20.0% by weight Zirconium: between about 0.5% and about 5.0% by weight Balance: between 0 and about 10.0% by weight wherein the alloy components add up to 100% by weight.
摘要:
The invention relates to a device for coating a stent, comprising a holder for the stent, a spraying unit comprising a spray mandrel and an air nozzle. The spray mandrel, the air nozzle and the holder are designed and disposed relative to each other such that the spray mandrel projects from one side into the stent during coating and the air nozzle projects into the stent from the opposing side. The invention further provides a method for coating a stent which employs the device according to the invention. Finally, the invention relates to stents that can be obtained according to the method.
