23 Biodegradable stents BACKGROUND Use of simulations for bioabsorbable stent to predict the mechanical behaviour of stent (recoil, radial strength, flexibility, ) to predict the degradation behaviour to optimise the design for a prolonged/shortened degradation resistance francesco.migliavacca@polimi.it
24 Biodegradable stents DEGRADABLE MATERIALS FOR STENTING Metals: Magnesium alloys Iron alloys Corrosion Degradation mechanisms Polymers: PLLA polycarbonate PLGA/PCL-PGA salicyclic acid polymer Bulk vs surface degradation Surface Degradation (lollipop) undegraded [Levesque et al 2008] Bulk Degradation (sponge) 24

To improve corrosion resistance: alloying mechanical/heat treatments surface modifications and coatings TARGET: Degradation rate has to be reduced to ensure mechanical support to the vessel for a longer time 25 francesco.migliavacca@polimi.it

41 Biodegradable stents DEGRADATION EXPERIMENT OF THE TWO SAMPLES The two samples were crimped to 1.2 mm of outer diameter and expanded to 3.0 mm then recoiled freely. The expanded CON sample is shown below. The two expanded samples were immersed in the D-Hank s solution for 7 days, with ph 7.5 and and temperature 37 C. The two samples were observed with unaided eyes to check structural integrity when immersed in solution. Then they were taken out for the observation with stereo or scanning electron microscope (SEM) after 7 days of corrosion. 41 francesco.migliavacca@polimi.it
42 Biodegradable stents EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS: STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY After the first day of immersion, the CON sample had several broken points on the strut while the OPT sample kept the structural integrity until the third day of immersion. After 7 days of corrosion, the CON sample has scattered into pieces, while the OPT has not scattered even though it had several broken points. The result is compatible with simulation that the OPT model has better property to resist corrosion. OPT CON 42 francesco.migliavacca@polimi.it
43 Biodegradable stents EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS: UNIFORM AND STRESS CORROSION The SEM observation shows that corrosion layers caused by uniform corrosion, which were shedding from the stent matrix. The early broken points caused by stress corrosion can also be observed and are compatible with the expected location in simulation. 43
44 Biodegradable stents CONCLUSIONS FROM MATHEMATICAL MODELLING Both simulation and experiment indicated that the optimized MAS design can yield better property to resist corrosion. Both simulation and experiment showed that the degradation of MAS consists of uniform and stress corrosion. The experiment preliminarily verified that the proposed numerical approach can be an effective tool for novel MAS design and property comparisons. 44
