Definitions

  • Implanted medical devices which involve catheters, valves, molded parts, etc., and which must reside totally or partially within the human body for relatively long periods of time have historically been plagued with the problem of infection. Examples of this group of devices include hydrocephalus shunts and central venous catheters. Colonization of bacteria on the interior surfaces of the catheter or other part of the device can produce serious patient problems, including the need to remove and/or replace the implanted device and secondary infective conditions.
  • a surface treated device can be successfully sterilized by known methods without deleteriously affecting the antimicrobial agent or its bond to the surface of the material of which the device is made. That is, subsequent sterilization of surface bonded agents tends to shorten the time of antimicrobial activity and, in addition, may produce by-products that are harmful to body tissue.
  • the present invention provides a medical device made from a polymeric material such as silicone elastomers or the like capable of being implanted in living tissue, which material has been treated to exhibit persistent antimicrobial activity in use of the device, and is capable of being swelled by penetration of a swelling agent and which has been subjected to such a swelling agent which contains completely dissolved therein at least one or more antimicrobial agen (s) as a solute, the surfaces being contacted by such swelling agent for a sufficient period of time to promote swelling of the matrix of a body of material and thereby permit diffusion and migration of the solution containing the selected antimicrobial agent solute into the intermolecular spaces of the body of material by the action of the swelling agent within the body of material, and the solvent being capable of being removed from the solute in the body of material by evaporation and after removal of the solvent the body of material being capable of returning substantially to its original size and shape with the antimicrobial agent (s) substantially uniformly deposited therein for subsequent continuous migration to and
  • the present invention also provides a method of infusing antimicrobials into the body of implantable medical devices containing a silicone elastomeric body of material and comprising the steps of completely contacting the surfaces of such device with a solution consisting of a swelling agent and at least one antimicrobial agent dissolved therein; maintaining contact between the solution and the surfaces for a sufficient period of time for the solution to completely swell the body of polymeric material and to diffuse the solution into the enlarged intermolecular spaces of the matrix provided by the swelling; evaporating the solvent from the solution to thereby substantially uniformly deposit the antimicrobials within the body of polymeric material while causing the material to return substantially to its original physical shape and condition; rinsing the treated surfaces; and sterilizing the treated body of the material prior to use.
  • the present invention utilizes a swelling agent which (1) is capabe to increasing the intermolecular spaces of silicone elastomers or other polymeric materials or latex; and (2) which is capable of dissolving selected antimicrobial agents without substantially chemically altering them under conditions and in a manner to permit the infusion of the antibacterial agents selected into the swelled material substantially uniformly and in sufficient amounts to provide for a prolonged significant level of antimicrobial activity when the infused material is subsequently implanted in the body.
  • a swelling agent which (1) is capabe to increasing the intermolecular spaces of silicone elastomers or other polymeric materials or latex; and (2) which is capable of dissolving selected antimicrobial agents without substantially chemically altering them under conditions and in a manner to permit the infusion of the antibacterial agents selected into the swelled material substantially uniformly and in sufficient amounts to provide for a prolonged significant level of antimicrobial activity when the infused material is subsequently implanted in the body.
  • the medical device of the present invention comprises a body of substantially homogeneous polymeric material such as silicone elastomer or the like.
  • One or more antimicrobial agent (s) are substantially uniformly dispersed throughout the body of polymeric material and provide a substantially uniform molecular dispersion of the antimicrobial agent(s) within the intermolecular spaces of the body of polymeric material.
  • the body of polymeric material and the antimicrobial agents therein effectively provide a solid solution of molecules of polymeric material and molecules of antimicrobial agent(s) having a concentration such as to cause diffusion of the molecules of the antimicrobial agent(s) toward and through the side surfaces of the body of polymeric material, when in use, for sufficient periods of time to provide effective protection against colonization after implant in the human body.
  • the preferred antimicrobials used in the process of the present invention are the following: 1) rifampin which is a semi ⁇ ynthetic antibiotic derivative of rifamycin B (specifically, rifampin is the hydrazone, 3- (4-methyl-l-pererazinyl-iminomethyl)-rifamycin SV.); and 2) clindamycin hydrochloride.
  • rifampin which is a semi ⁇ ynthetic antibiotic derivative of rifamycin B (specifically, rifampin is the hydrazone, 3- (4-methyl-l-pererazinyl-iminomethyl)-rifamycin SV.); and 2) clindamycin hydrochloride.
  • These preferred agents are preferably used in combination as a solute and together they provide superior penetration and persistent antimicrobial activity in devices treated according to the present invention with a broad spectrum covering most strains of gram positive bacteria causing the majority of infections in medical devices such as a hydrocephalus shunt.
  • the agents may also
  • the method of manufacture of the medical device comprises subjecting all surfaces of the body of polymeric material to a solution containing a suitable swelling agent (solvent) , such as hexane, toluene, xylene or preferably chloroform, and the antimicrobial agent (s) (solute) for a sufficient time to enable penetration and swelling of the entire body of polymeric material and substantially homogeneous dispersion of the antimicrobial agent(s) throughout the body of polymeric material within the enlarged intermolecular spaces thereof.
  • a suitable swelling agent such as hexane, toluene, xylene or preferably chloroform
  • the swelling agent is thereafter removed by evaporation to reverse swelling while retaining the antimicrobial agent ( ⁇ ) in a substantially uniform dispersion in the intermolecular spaces throughout the body of polymeric material so that the molecules of the antimicrobial agent ( ⁇ ) are essentially in solid ⁇ tate ⁇ olution with the molecule ⁇ of the body of the polymeric material and will thereafter migrate toward the surfaces of the body of the polymeric material and through the surfaces thereof solely by molecular diffusion.
  • the device is suitably sterilized either by ethylene oxide or gamma irradiation or low temperature steam autoclaving, but preferably in an autoclave with the device being subjected to steam heat at a temperature of 250° F and a pressure of 15 psi above atmospheric to obtain the advantageous results hereinafter described.
  • One objective is that there ⁇ hould be enough of the antimicrobial agent (s) to maintain the desired level of activity for the desired length of time.
  • Another objective i ⁇ that there should be insufficient antimicrobial agent( ⁇ ) to cau ⁇ e toxicity or other deleteriou ⁇ effect ⁇ to the implant or to it ⁇ function or to the recipient.
  • the period of risk for infection re ⁇ ulting from an operation to implant a device may vary from the moment of implantation to any time during the life of the device after the operation.
  • the material from which the device is made must be such as to retain the antimicrobial agent in a manner which prevents release of an oversupply of the agent while at the same time providing a continuous, effective supply of the agent at the surface of the device for a sufficient length of time.
  • An effective amount of antimicrobial agent( ⁇ ) e.g. 0.1% to 1.0% by weight of each to volume of solvent
  • the amount of antimicrobial agent(s) i ⁇ preferably about 0.1% to 0.2% by weight of each agent to volume of solvent.
  • the infusion treatment used herein is carried out in specially made glass impregnation chambers which conform to the shape of the device which has been selected for infusion processing, at its maximum swelling. These treatment chambers are designed to accommodate the device to be infused. A sufficient quantity of solution is used to provide contact between the solution and all surfaces of the device.
  • the clean, dry device to be impregnated is submerged in antimicrobial solution and primed so as to expose the interior and exterior surfaces of the device to the solution and to expel all air bubbles.
  • the device is secured in the chamber, because as the silicone rubber device swells in the charging solution, it becomes buoyant and will rise sufficiently to project out of the charging chamber if it is not properly secured.
  • the processing time starts when the tube is fully submerged.
  • the chamber is covered to minimize the evaporation of the solvent from the charging solution during treatment.
  • the duration of the treatment is about 30 minutes to one hour of contact with the solution, although the swelling itself may be substantially completed in approximately 10 minutes.
  • the charging chamber is checked visually during processing to make sure that the device has remained submerged.
  • the device is carefully removed from the chamber allowing the liquid inside the device to drain into the chamber.
  • the swelled silicone rubber is mechanically vulnerable at this stage and tears easily. Therefore, it must be handled gently.
  • the treated device is immediately immersed in an ethyl alcohol bath. This rinse reduces the spotting of the antimicrobial material on the outside of the device as it dries, but doe ⁇ not ⁇ ignificantly reduce the level of the antimicrobial activity.
  • the device i ⁇ then suspended in a vertical position, and permitted to air dry at room temperature (21° C) .
  • the device i ⁇ then allowed to outga ⁇ in thi ⁇ position overnight. At room temperature the device will u ⁇ ually have regained its initial size and shape within 10 minute ⁇ after removal from the charging chamber.
  • the treated device After outgas ⁇ ing, the treated device i ⁇ briefly washed in running tap water and rinsed in deionized water. It is again air dried for a short period in a warm dry air oven at a temperature not exceeding 200° F. The treated device is then sterilized by sufficient autoclaving at 250°F for 30 min at 15 psi above atmospheric pressure as previously described. It was discovered as a part of the present invention that autoclaving is not only satisfactory but also provides new and unexpected results in that there is better retention of the antimicrobial agent( ⁇ ) within the body of polymeric material. After sterilization, the treated device should be stored in the dark at room temper ture.
  • the antimicrobial (s) used to impregnate the device are best prepared in solutions immediately before use. Because of the potential light-sen ⁇ itive nature of the agent ( ⁇ ) and the volatile nature of the solvents, great care must be taken not to expose the solutions to direct sunlight or to store them in solution for any prolonged period prior to use. The solutions are discarded immediately after use.
  • the antimicrobial(s) are stored in a dry form according to the manufacturers' recommendations. Immediately prior to use they are weighed on an analytical balance to give a concentration typically 0.1% or more of each by weight/volume. The solutes are dissolved in an appropriate solvent such as chloroform. Only glas ⁇ beakers and glass volumetric flasks are used with the solvent-based solutions. Summary of Benefits and Results
  • the device is made of silicone elastomer having a size and shape which can be temporarily expanded to enlarge the normal intermolecular spaces to enable penetration of a treatment solution, including a removable expanding agent and antimicrobial agent( ⁇ ) , and which can be subsequently contracted to substantially the normal size and shape and substantially normal molecular structure by removal of the expanding agent, while retaining a substantial quantity of chemically intact antimicrobial agent( ⁇ ) within the ⁇ ub ⁇ tantially normal molecular ⁇ tructure.
  • the antimicrobial agent ( ⁇ ) within the body of polymeric material are released to and through the surfaces by solid state diffusion. Because of the molecular structure of the polymer and the intimate molecular association of the antimicrobial agent ( ⁇ ) therewith, the diffu ⁇ ion of these agent (s) occurs at a rate which provides antimicrobial efficacy at the surfaces of the device for a substantial period of time.
  • Silicone elastomers of varying consistencie ⁇ and/or configuration ⁇ when proces ⁇ ed according to the invention, demon ⁇ trate the ability to (1) absorb antimicrobials into their intermolecular spaces and retain chemically intact antimicrobial ⁇ within their intermolecular spaces; (2) release antimicrobials over time through constant diffusion of the antimicrobial to and through their surfaces; (3) retain antimicrobial activity after sterilization; (4) be capable of being sterilized by autoclaving without loss of antimicrobial activity and with enhanced retention of antimicrobials: (5) retain antimicrobial activity over time of storage; (6) provide effective protection against exce ⁇ ively high bacterial challenge; and (7) when processed according to the invention and implanted in living tissues, demonstrate no harmful side effects to surrounding tissue (s) and/or organs.
  • silicone elastomer devices such as hydrocephalus shunts
  • hydrocephalus shunts when processed according to the invention, will resist bacterial contamination introduced at the time of surgery which can lead to the colonization of the implant and its ultimate failure, removal and replacement; and will provide a longer period of protection against colonization by introduced bacteria due to the con ⁇ tant diffusion of antimicrobial to the surfaces of the device.
