Heparin/Collagen-REDV Modification of Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene Improves Regional Anti-thrombosis and Reduces Foreign Body Reactions in Local Tissues

Heparin/Collagen-REDV Modification of Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene Improves Regional Anti-thrombosis and Reduces Foreign Body Reactions in Local Tissues

Prosthetic implants of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) in the cardiovascular system have a high failure rate over the long term because of thrombosis and intimal hyperplasia. Although multiple surface modification methods have been applied to improve the anti-thrombotic and in situ endothel...
