The method involves providing a medical implant having a surface to be coated, where the surface of the implant is immersed in liquid (8) comprising pharmaceutically active substance. The surface is pulled out from the liquid by a membrane (9) or a diaphragm. The liquid is provided in an opening of a container (4), and a part of the liquid is adhered on the surface. A part of the transferred liquid is stripped off during withdrawal of the implant from the container on a designated scraper. Another liquid is transmitted to the surface via transmission medium before the implant is dipped. The pharmaceutically active substance are selected from a group consisting of pharmaceutically active agents such as antibiotics, organic antiseptics, copper salts, copper oxide, gallium salts, strontium salts, lithium salts, silver salts, silver oxide, bisphosphonates, growth factors, steroid hormones, steroidal hormones, hemostatic agents, antiinflammatory agents, plasmids, cosmids and linear DNA. An independent claim is also included for an apparatus for partially coating a medical implant. |
