摘要:
A coating on at least a portion of an implantable medical device includes a polymer and an agent that inhibits the formation of biofilms. The agent inhibiting the formation of a biofilm includes a quorum sensing inhibitor (QSI), a biofilm dispersing agent (BDA) or both. The agent may also be delivered via an actuator associated with the implantable medical device.
