This project focuses on creating catheters with antimicrobial nanocoatings to prevent biofilm formation, addressing the critical issue of catheter-associated infections. The innovative design allows for biofilm destruction using light activation, enhancing patient safety.
Catheter-associated infections are characterized by the formation of a bacterial biofilm on their surface and are a major clinical problem today with huge socioeconomic implications.
As a result, apart from longer hospital admissions that dramatically increase healthcare costs, in order to fight these infections increased antibiotic drug doses are used.
This approach places selective pressure on pathogens and, especially in nosocomial settings, facilitates the emergence of antimicrobial resistan…
