I'm not aware of any specific list beyond looking at individual devices that you know to use PVD or DLC and then checking the FDA database
When you say PVD or DLC do you mean DLC's that have been applied by a PVD method? what about DLCs via CVD? The majority of MD's that I'm aware of use a CVD technique
Obvious places to start would be:
- heart valves - St Jude Medical
- orthopedic replacement joints - Integra
For orthopaedics I would focus on extremities; there have previously been a couple of DLC coated hip joints but they were academic in nature and not really commercialised, I don't think they were in the US/FDA either
It may be worth asking a moderator to move this into a new thread as it will gain more relevent attention instead of being buried in a thread about adhesives!
