ObjectiveTo review the research status of anti-infective graft materials and analyze their application prospects, in order to provide inspiration for the development of anti-infective vascular endograft. MethodThe research on endovascular anti-infective grafts at home and abroad was reviewed. ResultsThe anti-infective capability of endovascular graft could be achieved through main approaches like modification of the bulk material, surface modification, or a combination of both. In terms of bulk material modification, this paper delved into the creation of antibacterial composite materials by incorporating other materials into primary materials like metals (such as Mg, Zn), biologically derived materials (such as chitosan, silk fibroin, bacterial cellulose), and synthetic polymers (such as graphene and its derivatives, polyurethane, polylactic acid). Examples included Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr alloy, bacterial cellulose/chitosan nanocrystal composites, and chitosan/silk fibroin composites. For surface modifications, inorganic coatings (such as silver, copper, and nitrides) and organic coatings (such as antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides, and anti-infection polymers) had shown promising antibacterial effects in experiments. ConclusionsThe future research focus is how to synthesize the composite graft material with the mechanical properties of ordinary graft and the cell, blood compatibility and antibacterial properties through nano technology. At the same time, how to synthesize coatings with stable long-term anti-infection and anti-bacterial biofilm performance is also considered to be an important direction of future research.
