Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to sterilization of medical devices having hydrophilic coatings and more specific to sterilization using radiation. Furthermore, the invention relates to a sterilized set comprising a medical device provided with a hydrophilic coating and a liquid for wetting the hydrophilic coating, a method for protecting the hydrophilic coating of a medical device having such coating during sterilization using radiation as well as a medical device having a hydrophilic coating said medical device showing, after sterilization using radiation, a prolonged water drain off time and reduced friction force.
  • WO 86/06284 (Astra Meditech Aktiebolag) discloses a wetting and storing device for a coated catheter in which the coating may be wetted using water or water comprising common salt and possibly bactericidal compounds or other additives.
  • GB Patent Application No. 2 284 764 discloses the application of a lubricious substance such as a water based jelly to the tip of a non-coated catheter prior to insertion into the urethra.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,648,704 discloses a disposable catheter apparatus in which a lubricant may be applied to the tip of the catheter prior to catherisation.
  • the substrate to be provided with a hydrophilic surface coating in the course of one or more process stages with intermediary drying and curing, is coated with one or more (mostly two) layers, which are brought to react with one another in various ways, e.g. by polymerization initiated by irradiation, by UV light, by graft polymerization, by the formation of interpolymeric network structures, or by direct chemical reaction.
  • Known hydrophilic coatings and processes for the application thereof are e.g. disclosed in Danish Patent No. 159,018, published European Patent Application Nos. EP 0 389 632, EP 0 379 156, and EP 0 454 293, European Patent No. EP 0 093 093 B2, British Patent No.
  • a hydrophilic surface coating is prepared on a substrate by applying, in two stages or in one combined stage, on the substrate a primer reactive with or adhesive to the substrate and then the actual hydrophilic surface layer which, in this case, comprises polyvinylpyrrolidone [PVP] as the active constituent.
  • PVP polyvinylpyrrolidone
  • the hydrophilic surface coating will have a tendency to become less slippery and to stick to surrounding tissues, and the removal of the medical device from the body may cause pain or damage the tissue. This is especially a problem when carrying out urodynamic examinations via a catheter.
  • European Patent No. EP 0 217 771 describes a method of forming a hydrophilic coating in order to retain the slipperiness in use for a longer period of time by applying a non-reactive hydrophilic polymer surface layer to a substrate, applying to the non-reactive hydrophilic surface polymer a solution comprising a solvent and above 2% (weight per volume) of an osmolality-increasing compound selected from the group consisting of mono and disaccharides, sugar alcohols, and non-toxic organic and inorganic salts, with the proviso that the osmolality-increasing compound is not a trihalogenide such as KI 3 (KI/I 2 ), and evaporating the solvent.
  • an osmolality-increasing compound selected from the group consisting of mono and disaccharides, sugar alcohols, and non-toxic organic and inorganic salts
  • EP 0 217 771 discloses that when wetting the catheters after drying, catheters having a coating of a non-toxic, osmolality increasing compound retaining their slipperiness for longer times than corresponding untreated surfaces i.e. coated catheters dry more slowly. However EP 0 217 771 is silent with respect to storing the coated catheters in the wetting solution and any type of sterilization or problems in connection herewith.
  • WO 94/16747 discloses a hydrophilic coating with improved retention of water on a surface, especially a surface of a medical device such as a urethra catheter, prepared by applying to the surface in one or more process steps at least one solution of components that will combine to form the hydrophilic coating. During the final step, the surface is coated with an osmolality promoting agent which is dissolved or emulgated in the solution or in the last solution to be applied when forming the hydrophilic coating.
  • WO 94/16747 does not disclose cross-linked coatings.
  • WO 89/09246 discloses solid shaped structures having a surface coated with crosslinked hydrophilic polymer, the coating being durable and exhibiting a low coefficient of friction when wet. It is stated that the degree of crosslinking is critical and is to be controlled by the operating conditions chosen as too much crosslinking reduces or completely eliminates the low friction surface property, and too little crosslinking negatively affects the durability of the coating. WO 89/09246 does not disclose the presence of a water soluble or osmolality-increasing compound in the coating.
  • WO 98/19729 discloses catheter packages wherein the catheter is stored in the wetting medium comprising, e.g., an aqueous solution of NaCl, but WO 98/19729 does not mention a wetting solution comprising a hydrophilic polymer.
  • the present invention relates to a method for sterilizing a medical device comprising a hydrophilic coating using radiation.
  • the invention relates to a sterilized set comprising a medical device provided with a hydrophilic coating and an aqueous liquid for wetting the hydrophilic coating.
  • the invention relates to a method of protecting the hydrophilic coating of a medical device having such coating during sterilizing using radiation.
  • the invention further relates to a medical device comprising a hydrophilic coating said medical device showing, after sterilization using radiation, a prolonged water drain off time and a reduced friction force.
  • the invention yet further relates to methods for preparing sterilized catheters having hydrophilic coatings.
  • the present invention relates to a method for sterilizing a medical device comprising a hydrophilic coating using radiation said method comprising the steps of bringing the medical device having such coating in contact with an aqueous liquid for wetting the hydrophilic coating, said liquid comprising a solution of a hydrophilic polymer and sterilizing the device by applying a sufficient amount of radiation.

  • Suitable hydrophilic polymers for the wetting agent may be mixtures of the preferred species stated above.
  • Dissolved hydrophilic polymer chains in the aqueous liquid penetrates physically bound or crosslinked coatings and prevent further crosslinking during irradiation.
  • Dissolved polymers may be chemically bonded to the hydrophilic coating during irradiation in the aqueous liquid. This gives rise to a thicker layer of coating contributing to a higher capacity of retaining water.
  • the hydrophilic polymer is a synthetic polymer and especially that the hydrophilic polymer is at least compatible with and preferably of the same type as the hydrophilic polymer of the coating.
  • polysaccharides selected from the group consisting of cellulose derivatives and xanthans. Although polysaccharides show a tendency of break down on sterilisation using radiation, these compounds have still proven effective in giving a long retention time, a low friction. Normally such compounds show a very pronounced thickening effect in water and are used in relatively low amounts.
  • the cellulose derivative is CMC or a derivative thereof.
  • CMC is suitably used in an amount from 0.005 to 3.0%, depending on the molecular weight and degree of substitution of the polymer preferably about 0.5% giving very good results.
  • the amount used is normally in the range from 0.005 to 1%, preferably about 0.15%.
  • the hydrophilic polymer is a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP).
  • the amount of polyvinyl pyrrolidone to be used according to the invention may vary and depends i.a. on the molecular weight of the specific PVP. The higher the molecular weight, the higher is the tendency of gelling. Thus, the use of higher amounts of low molecular weight PVP gives an effect similar to the use of lower amounts of a higher molecular weight PVP.
  • the amount of a PVP of a given molecular weight PVP to be used is easily determined by the skilled in the art by routine experiments testing the water retention. When using a PVP having a relatively low molecular weight above 1000 and preferably above 5000, an amount of 6% by weight has proven to be suitable giving a long retention time, a low friction and no problems with gelling.
