O projektu

Cardiovascular diseases represent a critical global health challenge, affecting millions through the obstruction of blood vessels. Existing interventions, particularly conventional stents, are hindered by significant limitations such as rigidity and a high risk of restenosis. This proposal introduces MagStents, an innovative fusion of soft polymers and magnetic nanoparticles, designed to overcome these challenges. While traditional metal stents restore blood flow, they are constrained by inflexibility and potential vessel damage. In contrast, MagStents offer a biocompatible, flexible, and self-expanding alternative, constructed from dual crosslinked hydrogels. A key advancement of MagStents is their magnetic actuation, enabling precise positioning, adjustment, and post-deployment control using an external magnetic field. This capability introduces a novel dimension in cardiovascular intervention, reducing the need for surgical procedures by allowing real-time non-invasive adjustments.
