A medical device for implantation into a host organism is disclosed. The device comprises a surface adapted for contact with body tissue of the host organism and an electrode disposed on at least a portion of the surface. Also the device comprises a power source in direct or indirect electrical communication with the electrode. The power source is capable of providing a current to the electrode to create an average surface charge density on the surface that is effective to promote the biocompatibility of the surface with the body tissue or create other desired biological effects.
L'invention concerne un dispositif médical destiné à être implanté dans un organisme hôte. Le dispositif comprend une surface conçue pour mettre en contact les tissus corporels de l'organisme et une électrode disposée sur au moins une partie de la surface. Le dispositif comprend également une source d'énergie en communication électrique directe ou indirecte avec l'électrode. La source d'énergie est capable de fournir un courant à l'électrode pour créer une densité de charge de surface moyenne sur la surface qui favorise la biocompatibilité de la surface avec le tissu corporel ou la création d'autres effets biologiques souhaités.
