stent surface is fully coated with a layer of

amorphous hydrogen-rich silicon carbide

This material has

semiconducting properties that efficiently

prevent the electron transfer from

fibrinogen to the metal surface in vitro.

Thereby the conversion from fibrinogen to

fibrin and it's depoisition at the stent

surface is reduced.

Additionally, aSiC:H -

coated stents exhibit a lower adhesion and

activation of blood platelets and

leucocytes.

Finally, the release of

potentially allergenic ions from a silicon

carbide coated stent is substantially

reduced in comparison to an uncoated

metal stent3.

This coating is used on all

characterized by a resorbable polymeric Thickness 1.3mm - 1.5mm

curved segment, processed in poly-1,4-

dioxanone, moulded around a PVDF

suture itself ended by swaged stainless

steel needles. These three constituents are

assembled in such a way that they cannot

be shared or dismounted after assembly

without irremediably destroying the device.

For these reasons, KALANGOS Mitral

Ring should be considered as a single

device. Each extremity of the polymeric

segment is terminated by a sharp end

prolonged by the PVDF suture with a

swaged stainless steel needle on both sides.
