What is Multifunctional Coatings on Medical Devices about?

This Special Issue is dedicated to highlighting important advancements in the development of multifunctional coatings on the surface of biomaterials used in medical devices, such as implants, scaffolds for tissue engineering, etc. -It is generally acknowledged that one of the most pressing current challenges is the development of biomaterials with new characteristics and properties that can be used in various medical applications. Medical devices are extremely useful in medicine for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, and have come to be widely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery, dentistry, orthopedics, neurosurgery, cardiovascular surgery, urology, etc. -Multifunctional coatings can endow implantable systems with particular properties and promote their interaction with adjacent cells and tissue fluids, depending on the function and location of the medical device. Furthermore, the surfaces of medical devices can be coated with antibiotic-containing layers with the capacity to counteract bacterial adhesion. -Currently, an interesting research direction concerns the development of smart coatings based on biomaterials, which change their properties in response to environ
