Lubricious medical device coating with low particulates
Embodiments of the invention include lubricious medical device coatings. In an embodiment the invention includes a coating for a medical device including a first layer comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatized with a photoreactive group; and a first cross-linking agent comprising at least two photoreactive groups; a second layer disposed on the first layer comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatized with a photoreactive group; a second cross-linking agent comprising at least two photoreactive groups; and a polymer comprising polyacrylamide, the polymer derivatized with at least one photoreactive group. Other embodiments are included herein.
1. A medical device comprising:
a substrate;
a coating comprising:
a first layer disposed on the substrate, the first layer comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatized with a photo reactive group; and
a first cross-linking agent comprising at least two photoreactive groups;
a second layer disposed on the first layer comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatized with a photo reactive group;
a second cross-linking agent comprising at least two photoreactive groups; and N-acetylated poly[acrylamide-co-sodium-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate-co-N-(3-(4-benzoylbenzamido)propyl)methacrylamide]-co-methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate; and wherein
the coating exhibits a particulate release of less than 10,000 particles of greater than 10 microns in size in an aqueous environment.
2. The medical device of claim 1 , the substrate comprising a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyamide, polyimide, polyether block amide (PEBAX), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polyethylene, polyurethane, and polyethylene vinyl acetate.
3. The medical device of claim 1 , the medical device comprising a catheter.
