Endomimetics has developed a BioNanomatrix that can be used to coat these devices. The coating is claimed to mimic human tissue which minimizes the need for additional surgeries, improves the longevity of the device, reduces complications associated with having foreign items implanted in the body. The endothelium mimicking nitric oxide-releasing BioNanomatrix was initially developed for coronary and peripheral stents. As of August 2017, it is being assessed for several novel applications including stents to help with heart disease, stents, and blood flow diverters to help with brain aneurysms, fistula implantation for dialysis patients, and intranasal implants for chronic sinusitis sufferers
