Abstract EN
Implanting a metal stent plays a key role in treating cardiovascular diseases.
However, the high corrosion rate of metal-based devices severely limits their practical applications.
Therefore, how to control the corrosion rate is vital to take full advantages of metal-based materials in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
This review details various methods to design and construct polymer-coated stents.
The techniques are described and discussed including plasma deposition, electrospinning, dip coating, layer-by-layer self-assembly, and direct-write inkjet.
Key point is provided to highlight current methods and recent advances in hindering corrosion rate and improving biocompatibility of stents, which greatly drives the rising of some promising techniques involved in the ongoing challenges and potential new trends of polymer-coated stents.
