Abstract: Hyaluronic acid (HA) has favorable physicochemical properties and superior biological activities, which is an ideal biomaterial for preparing hydrogel coating. After physically or chemically modifying, HA-based hydrogel coating has been gradually applied to functional modification for medical catheters surface, such as hydrophilic lubricating coating, anti-inflammatory coating, biomedical antifouling coating and blood compatibility improved coating. However, there are still intractable problems in the coating technology of HA hydrogel which is applied to the surface of medical catheters, especially in adhesion, stability and element proportion of HA coating. Finally, the related influencing factors and improvement suggestions are analyzed in this study.
