Abstract

See full text

An implantable device with in vivo functionality, where the functionality of the device is negatively affected by the inflammation reaction generally associated with tissue injury, encapsulated by a protective coating that prevents damage to the device from any inflammation reactions. The protective coating is designed to persist for a set period of time, generally until after the inflammation reaction of the surrounding in vivo environment in response to the injury caused by the implantation procedure has concluded. The protective coating is further designed to “resorb” (i.e. to dissociate from the device, dissolve, and be absorbed into the surrounding environment) after a set period of time, allowing the device to perform its in vivo functionality unhindered without loss of performance.
