2.0 Primary requirement
The primary requirement for biomaterials for long-term implants are: Blood compatibility (blood compatible) Non-toxicity Durability Non-irritating to tissue Resistant to platelet and thrombus deposition Nondegradable in physiological enviroment Do not absorb blood element Do not release foreign substance
![Page 7: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

3.0 Design consideration
The implant should mimic the function of organ that it replace without interfering with the surrounding anatomical structures.
Must be suitable size and weight Biomaterial chosen must be easily
available, inexpensive, easily machinable and sterilizable.
![Page 8: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

3.0 Design consideration
As an example: artificial heart valve is required to open and close on an average once every second (valves open and close 30 million times per year). The biomaterial chosen must be such that the valve is durable and will not fail under fatigue stress after implantation in patient.

4.0 Blood compatibility
Blood compatibility can be defined as the property of material or device that permits it to function in contact with blood without inducing adverse reactions.
Implant should not Induce coagulation (blood clotting) Damage blood cells
Should not induce Hemolysis (the breaking open of red blood cells and the release of hemoglobin into the surrounding fluid)

4.0 Blood compatibility
4.1 Blood Coagulation Coagulation is a complex process by
which blood forms clots.
4.1.1 Mechanism: Intrinsic
Initiated by blood contact with either a damaged portion of the blood vessel wall or another thrombogenic (clot causing) surface.
Takes 7-12 minutes to form a soft clot
![Page 13: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

4.0 Blood compatibility
Extrinsic Result of the presence of a foreign body or
tissue damage (other than blood vessel) Takes 5-12 seconds to form a soft clot
![Page 14: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

4.0 Blood compatibility
4.1.2 Factor affect the blood compatibility of a material
i. Surface roughness Rough surface have a greater surface
area and contact surface with blood compared to smooth surfaces
Result in faster coagulation
![Page 15: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

4.0 Blood compatibility
ii. Surface Charge The tunica intima (the innermost layer of artery or vein)
of a normal blood vessel has a negative surface charge due to proteins at surface of the cell membrane.
Formed blood element (red cells, white cells, and platelets) also have a negative charge.
Natural repulsive force between intima and cells minimizes cell damage and coagulation
iii. Low surface tension Blood cells less likely to adhere to a surface with a low
surface tension
![Page 16: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

4.0 Blood compatibility
iv. Heparinized surfaces Heparin is a polysaccharide with negative
charge. Heparin is a naturally-occurring anticoagulant
produced by basophils and mast cells. Heparin acts as an anticoagulant, preventing the
formation of clots and extension of existing clots within the blood.
it allows the body's natural clot lysis mechanisms to work normally to break down clots that have already formed
Attempt made to attach heparin chemically to the surface of the implant to prevent blood clot.

4.2 HEMOLYSIS Motion at a blood-surface interface may
damage red and white blood cell resulting in cell death.
Damage of cell occurs with shear stresses on the cells of less than 500dyn/cm2 .
Chronic and accumulated damage of red blood cells and leakage of the cellular contents can result in: Anemia Kidney Failure Toxemia

5.0 Heart valve prostheses
HEART VALVES Heart valves are very important, as they
prevent the backflow of blood, which ensures the proper direction of blood flow through the circulatory system.
Without these valves, the heart would have to work much harder to push blood into adjacent chambers. The heart is composed of 4 valves: tricuspid, pulmonary, mitral, and aortic.
![Page 20: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

5.0 Heart valve prostheses
HEART VALVE PROBLEMS There are numerous complications and
diseases of the heart valves that prevent the proper flow of blood.
Heart valve diseases fall into two categories, Stenosis
The stenotic heart valve prevents the valve from opening fully, due to stiffened valve tissue. Hence, there is more work required to push blood through the valve
Incompetence. the incompetent valves cause inefficient blood
circulation by permitting backflow of blood in the heart
![Page 21: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

5.0 Heart valve prostheses
TREATMENT OPTIONS On a large scale, medication is the
best alternative, although in some cases defective valves have to be replaced with a prosthetic valve in order for the patient to live a normal life
![Page 23: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

5.0 Heart valve prostheses
MAIN PROSTHETIC HEART VALVE Heart valve prostheses can be classified
into two type: 1. Mechanical prostheses : made of non-biological
materials. 2. Biological heart valve: made of biological tissue
Heart valves are designed to fit the peculiar requirements of blood flow through the specific chambers of the heart, with emphasis on producing more central flow and reducing blood clots.
![Page 24: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

5.0 Heart valve prostheses
1. MECHANICAL PROSTHESIS
a) Caged ball This valve uses a small
ball that is held in place by a welded metal cage.
The ball in cage design was modeled after ball valves used in industry to limit the flow of fluids to a single direction
![Page 25: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
26
5.0 Heart valve prostheses
b. Tilting disc Have a polymer disc held in
place by two welded strut The disc floats between the
two struts in such a way, as to close when the blood begin to travel backward and then reopen when blood begin to travel again.
The titling-disc valves open at an angle of 60° and close shut at rate of 70 times/minute
![Page 26: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
27
5.0 Heart valve prostheses
Advantages: Provide improved central flowwhile still
preventing backflow Reduce mechanical damage to blood cells Reduce blood clotting and infection
Problem: Have a tendency for the outlet strut to
fracture as a result of fatigue from the repeated ramming (smash into) of the struts by the disc.
![Page 27: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
28
5.0 Heart valve prostheses
c. Bileaflet valves Consist of two semicircular
leaflets that pivot on hinges Advantages:
Provide the closest approximation to centarl flow achieved in natural heart valve.
Disadvantages: They do not close completely,
which allows some backflow. Since backflow is one of the
properties of defective valves, the bileaflet valves are still not ideal valves.
![Page 28: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
29
5.0 Heart valve prostheses
d. Trileaflet heart valve Afford true central flow
characteristic with reduced back flow
Good wear characteristic. Significantly improve patient’s
quality of life. This will be achieved due to reduced
consumption of anticoagulants by the patients, reduced noise, low blood hemolysis, and the elimination of the need for repeated implantations because of high reliability of the mechanical design.

i. Human tissue valvesii. Animal tissue valve
Advantages: Design of valve are closer to the design of
the natural valve. Do not require long term anticoagulant Do not cause damage to blood cells Do not suffer from many of structural
problems experienced by the mechanical heart valve
![Page 33: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
34
Human Tissue valve
Homograft: valves that are transplanted from another human being
Autograft: valves that are transplanted from one position to another within the same person.
Dysfunctional aortic valve (exit of the left ventricle) is removed, patient’s pulmonic valve is then transplanted to the aortic position.
A homograft pulmonic valve is usually used to replace the patient’s pulmonic valve.

Animal tissue valve
Refereed as heterograft or xenograft valves.
The two common prosthesis valve from animal tissue are: PORCINE VALVES BOVINE PERICARDIAL VALVE
![Page 36: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
37
Animal tissue valve
PORCINE VALVES Valve tissue from pig Valve tissue is sewn to a metal wire stent
made of cobalt-nickel alloy. The wire is bent to form three U-shaped
prongs. A Dacron cloth sewing skirt is attached to the
base of the wire stent, and then the stents themselves are also covered with cloth.
Porcine valves have good durability and usually last for ten to fifteen years.
![Page 37: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
38
Animal tissue valve
BOVINE PERICARDIAL VALVE Bovine pericardial valves are similar to porcine
valves in design. The major difference is the location of the
small metal cylinder which joins the ends of the wire stents together.
In the case of pericardial valves, the metal cylinder is located in the middle of one of the stent post loops.
Pericardial valves have excellent hemodynamics and have durability equal to that of standard porcine valves after 10 years.

Biological tissue valves
Advantages of biological heart valve
Disadvantages of biological heart valve
1. Design of valve are closer to the design of the natural valve.
2. Do not require long term anticoagulant
3. Do not cause damage to blood cells
4. Do not suffer from many of structural problems experienced by the mechanical heart valve
1. Stiffening of the tissue due to the build up calcium.
2. Calcification can cause a restriction of blood flow through the valve (stenosis) or cause tears in the valve leaflets.

Conclusion
The future for replacement heart valves lies in tissue engineering.
The most ideal replacement would be formed from the patient's tissue, and tailored to the right shape and dimensions.
This would improve the biocompatibily factor, and increase the life expectancy of the heart valve.

6.0 VASCULAR GRAFT
BLOOD VESSELS Blood vessel are the channels through
which blood is distributed to body tissue.
Blood vessel are classified as either: Arteries (carry blood away from the heart) Capillaries Veins (carry blood to the heart)

BLOOD VESSELS PROBLEMS Vascular graft is needed to replace diseased
blood vessel such as atherosclerosis blood vessel and aortic aneurysm .
Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque (plak) builds up on the insides of your arteries.
Aneurysm is blood-filled dilation (balloon-like bulge) of a blood vessel caused by disease or weakening of the vessel wall.

TREATMENT OPTIONS The main treatment for atherosclerosis
is lifestyle changes. You also may need medicines and medical procedures.
For aortic aneurysms or aneurysms that happen in the vessels that supply blood to the arms, legs, and head (the peripheral vessels), surgery involves replacing the weakened section of the vessel with an artificial tube.

54
Synthetic graft - Dacron
Woven grafts have smaller pores and do not leak as much blood.
To reduce the blood loss knitted grafts should be pre-clotted prior to insertion.
They are less frequently used than woven grafts.
Dacron grafts have recently been manufactured coated with protein (collagen/albumin) to reduced the blood loss and antibiotics to prevent graft infection.
Dacron grafts are frequently used in aortic and aorto-iliac surgery.

55
Synthetic graft - PTFE
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a knitted graft.
Its smooth surface is less thrombogenic than Dacron.
Its smooth wall is prone to kinking as it passes around joints necessitating it to be externally supported.

56
Synthetic graft-stent graft
A stent graft is a tubular device, which is composed of special fabric supported by a rigid structure, usually metal.
The rigid structure is called a stent. An average stent on its own has no
covering, and therefore is usually just a metal mesh.
Although there are many types of stent, these stents are used mainly for vascular intervention.
![Page 55: BIOMATERIALS ENT 311/4 Lecture 9 Blood Contacting Implants or Devices Prepared by: Nur Farahiyah Binti Mohammad Date: 26 th August 2008 Email : farahiyah@unimap.edu.my.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e005503460f94ae9682/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
57
Synthetic graft-stent graft
The device is used primarily in endovascular surgery. Stent grafts are used to support weak points in arteries, commonly known as an aneurysm.
Stent grafts are most commonly used in the repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm, in a procedure called an EVAR (Endovascular Aneurysm Repair ).
The theory behind the procedure is that once in place inside the aorta, the stent graft acts as a false lumen for blood travel through, instead of into the aneurysm sack.

Problem
The commonest complications associated with the use of vascular grafts are: Graft occlusion (blockage) Graft infection (Graft infection is thankfully
rare (1-2%)) True and false aneurysms at the site of
anastomosis Distal embolisation (blocking of a graft) Erosion in to adjacent structures

Conclusion
Most of the vascular graft are stiffer compared to the host artery.
Development with more compliant grafts and in modifying the surface interaction of the graft with blood may result in reducing the problems with loss of patency.
Recent advance is to engineered vascular graft from recipients own tissue. This will provide better biocompatibility and performance.
