Nanotechnologies for Medical Devices: Potentialities and Risks

Abstract: Many novel medical devices (implantable or not) include nanomaterials through either surface-coating by nanoparticles or by direct nanostructuration of the surface. In this review, we have identified several medical devices currently on the market in various health domains (wound healing, prevention or treatment of infectious diseases, cardio-vascular diseases, organ or joint replacement, and finally medical devices associated with nanomedicines). The very peculiar physicochemical characterization of the nanos… Show more

“…This raises several questions in terms of target organs, collection time, gold dissemination, LLOQ, etc. Compared to other studies, the quantity of injected AuNPs was less important, but may be more representative of a real exposition to AuNPs [33].…”

“…Bioengineered nano materials have witnessed a dramatic growth within the previous couple of years to satisfy the growing demand for novel technologies in both the scientific and industrial sectors [33][34][35][36] .Medical implants though successful in treating disease and injury, it suffers from various complications like infections and inflammatory reactions instigated by bacteria colonizing and biofilm formation. This can be minimized either by Impregnating or coating with antibacterial agent which is one of the strategy and silver Nanoparticles has gained enormous attention [37][38] . Silver nanoparticle is one of the most vital and fascinating metallic nano materials in biomedical application.…”

“…Medical devices refer to instruments, tools, machines, devices, in vitro reagents, implants, or other similar/related items, including accessories recognized by or components in the official national formulary, United States Pharmacopoeia (USP), or any supplement thereof. [31,32] These devices are intended to be used in the medical field to treat, alleviate or diagnose diseases, prevent diseases of humans or other animals, and affect the structure and function of humans or other animals. [33,34] However, these devices do not realize any of the main intended purposes by chemical action and metabolism in humans or other animals.…”
