Description

Demand for organ transplants far exceeds available donor organs. As a result some patients may die whilst waiting for a transplant. Advances in biomaterials have generated a range of materials and devices for either use outside the body or implantation to replace or assist functions which may have been lost through disease or injury. Part one covers technologies which are well established within the field. Chapters in part two discuss more recent advances in the discipline whilst part three covers the technologies which are likely to become widely used in the near future. Biomaterials for artificial organs provides readers with a thorough review of the current status and future outlook of this important field. Key Features: reviews the latest developments in biomaterials and investigates how they can be used to improve the quality and efficiency of artificial organs; discusses commodity biomaterials including membranes for oxygenators and cobalt chromium alloys for hips and knees and polymeric joint-bearing surfaces for total joint replacements; further biomaterials utilised in pacemakers, defibrillators, neurostimulators and mechanical and bioprosthetic heart valve are also explored. Contents: Part 1 Commodity biomaterials: Membranes for oxygenators and plasmafilters: Titanium and cobalt-chromium alloys for hips and knees; Polymeric joint bearing surfaces for total joint replacements; Biomaterials for pacemakers, defibrillators and neurostimulators; Mechanical and bioprosthetic valves. Part 2 Advanced and next generation biomaterials: Small intestinal submucosa and other decullarized matrix biomaterials for tissue repair; New ceramics and composites for joint replacement surgery; Biomaterials for improving the blood and tissue compatibility of total artificial hearts (TAH) and ventricular assist devices (VAD); Nanostructured biomaterials for artificial tissues and organs; Matrices for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
