Zusammenfassung:Articles and/or integrated articles comprising a body portion (e.g., a catheter) and a component (e.g., a cuff) physically integrated with the body portion are generally provided. For example, materials, methods, and uses are set forth herein for forming a body portion comprising a first material physically integrated with a component comprising a second material, same or different, than the first material. The disclosed compositions and devices may be useful for administration to a subject (e.g., a patient). Advantageously, the compositions and/or devices described herein may be substantially non-thrombogenic, lubricious, and/or biocompatible. In some embodiments, the devices described herein may be useful for the delivery of a biologically active agent (e.g., a therapeutic agent such as a drug) to a subject. Methods for forming such compositions and/or devices are also provided.
