At present the problem of creating materials for medical application, which possess surface thromboresistant and antiseptic properties is of the great importance. The method of creating hydrogel films, containing anticoagulants, biologically active and antiseptic substances on the surface of well‐known polymers of medical purity allows to give their surface special functions and properties and to retain the good mechanical properties [1,2]. In the majority of cases, the methods which are used for the creation of such films have a limitations which impede their wide application as they do not allow to obtain surface layers, possessing different medico‐biological and physic‐chemical properties. The aim of our research was the electroformation of biocompatible, polyfunctional poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) films with immobilizied anticoagulant, enzyme and antibiotic on the surface of a composite material on the base of polysiloxane of medical purity [3,4].
