Abstract

A thromboresistant coating, method for forming same on a medical device, and the medical device thus prepared are provided. The thromboresistant coating is a highly cross-linked three-dimensional matrix copolymerized from an aminosilane component and a silane other than the aminosilane that is cured and dried into a thick matrix having amino groups interspersed therethroughout. The amino groups facilitate attachment of an antithrombogenic agent to the matrix and thus to the medical device. In addition, an antithrombogenic material is secured to the aminosilane copolymeric matrix.
