Abstract

A basic strategies to deal with the above described problems of CAUTI and biofilm formation is aimed toward modification of the implant’s surface-chemical properties, coating with a desired agent, and by manipulation of the surface roughness or morphology which can prevent the attachment of bacteria to the implant [1]. This chapter will be devoted predominantly to coating of silicon-based medical implants. Two strategies are common in coating of medical implants to achieve the above-mentioned goals.
