Abstract: Methods for making medical devices having porous coatings. Methods may comprise providing a tubing section having inner and outer surfaces and positioning a nozzle proximate to a target surface of the parent tubing section. A powder form of the porous coating may be delivered toward the tubing section, and a laser may be directed at the powder to melt the powder to form a melt pool. The melt pool can solidify to form the porous coating on the target surface. Portions of the parent tubing section may then be cut away to form the support structure of the medical device, such as a stent.

Abstract: A mixing valve adapter is disclosed for a sink faucet with a mixing valve. An example mixing valve adapter includes an adapter body formed as a rigid unitary structure that does not flex so that the mixing valve is mounted rigid to the sink faucet without separately mounting the mixing valve apart from the sink faucet. The example mixing valve adapter also includes a first valve connection on the adapter body for connecting mixed cold and hot water from the mixing valve, and a first faucet connection on the adapter body for connecting the mixed cold and hot water to the sink faucet. The example mixing valve adapter also includes a second valve connection on the adapter body for connecting cold water from the mixing valve, and a second faucet connection on the adapter body for connecting the cold water to the sink faucet.
