Hightlights
● Material and mechanical structures of absorbable vascular clips affect its hemostatic efficiency.
● The tooth shape, tail end, and closure of vascular clips are the main direction of mechanical structure improvement.
● The coating of the vascular clips can regulate the degradation rate and improve hemostatic efficiency.
● Reasonable mechanical properties and degradation rate are the main development direction for absorbable vas cular clips.
