Despite the continual progress in technology, thromboembolic complications still occur following endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms and remain the primary contributor to morbidity and mortality. Thus, coating the surfaces of blood-contacting flow diverters may reduce thrombus-related complications in clinical use. In this study, the hemocompatibility of different commercially available flow diverters Pipeline Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology (Medtronic), the p64 MW HPC (Phenox), and the DERIVO 2heal (Acandis) was investigated using an in vitro blood circulation model. The DERIVO 2 flow diverter was included in this study as an uncoated device. The markers of coagulation (thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT)), thrombocytes (β-thromboglobulin (β-TG)), inflammation (PMN elastase), and complement system (SC5b-9, C3a, and C5a) activation were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition to blood cell counts and hemolysis, thrombogenicity was determined using scanning electron microscopy. Flow diverters with anti-thrombogenic coatings resulted in significantly lower activation of coagulation (TAT) and platelets (β-TG) and lower adhesion of platelets compared with the uncoated DERIVO 2 flow diverter. There were no significant differences between the coated flow diverters in terms of TAT and β-TG levels, as well as platelet adhesion. However, significantly lower activation of the complement system (SC5b-9 and C5a) was observed for the DERIVO 2heal flow diverter in comparison with the Pipeline Flex Shield and the p64 MW HPC flow diverters emphasizing the improved hemocompatibility of the fibrin/heparin-coated DERIVO 2heal flow diverter.
