Biologically beneficial coatings for implantable devices containing fluorinated polymers and methods for fabricating the same

摘要

Coatings for an implantable medical device and a method of fabricating the coatings are disclosed. The coatings comprise a fluorinated polymer and a biologically beneficial polymer, an example of which includes poly(ethylene-glycol)-block poly(butylene terephthalate)-block poly(ethylene-glycol). A biologically active agent can be additionally conjugated to the biologically beneficial polymer.
