METHOD FOR IMPROVING THE FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF MESH IMPLANTS FOR HERNIAL PLASTY Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC A61F2/02 A61L27/06 A61L27/30 A61B17/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to surgery, and discloses a method for improving mesh implants for hernial plasty. The method is characterised by the fact that an aluminium oxide substrate with a thickness of 10 nm and then a nanofilm of titanium/vanadium oxides with a thickness of 18 nm are applied to the implant.

EFFECT: nanofilm of titanium/vanadium oxides significantly improves the biocompatibility of a mesh endoprosthesis and the barrier and functional properties thereof, increases the durability of the implant; aluminium oxide substrates contribute to better adhesion of the nanofilm of titanium/vanadium oxides to the mesh, contribute to the strength of the film, prevent destruction of the mesh endoprosthesis caused by the impact of an oxidising environment and occurrence of long-term postoperative complications, such as wrinkling, migration of the mesh; invention can be used in hernial operations using mesh implants.
