MEDICAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRESSING PATHOGENIC ACTIVITY IN A VASCULAR ACCESS DEVICE

摘要

Surfaces not attached to vascular access device. A vascular access device may include a body and a body layer that communicates with a pathogenic environment to discourage pathogen adhesion to the layer and thus repress pathogenic activity. A method of suppressing pathogenic activity in a vascular access device includes equipping the device with a body and coating the body with a layer that discourages adhesion of a layer pathogen to the layer.
