The present disclosure relates to a hydrogel composition and methods of using the same. The hydrogel composition may include precursors that react with each other upon contact as well as precursors that react upon contact with an initiator. In embodiments, the resulting hydrogels may have varying levels of crosslinking with both denser and less dense regions.

1. A method of in situ hydrogel formation in a body lumen comprising: introducing a first reactive precursor comprising electrophilic groups, a second reactive precursor comprising nucleophilic groups, and a separate initiated precursor comprising at least one vinyl group into a body lumen;permitting the first reactive precursor and the second reactive precursor to react to form a first hydrogel capable of adhering to the lumen; andexposing the separate initiated precursor to an initiator to form a second crosslinked hydrogel,wherein the first hydrogel and the second hydrogel form a composite hydrogel composition. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the first reactive precursor, the second reactive precursor, or both, comprise a core comprising a component selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, polyethylene oxide, polyethylene oxide-co-polypropylene oxide, co-polyethylene oxide block copolymers, co-polyethylene oxide random copolymers, polyvinyl alcohol, poly(vinyl pyrrolidinone), poly(amino acids), dextran, chitosan, alginates, carboxymethylcellulose, oxidized cellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose, hyaluronic acid, albumin, collagen, casein, gelatin, and combinations thereof 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the first reactive precursor possesses N-hydroxysuccinimide groups and the second reactive precursor possesses amine groups. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the separate initiated precursor is selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, phosphorylcholine containing monomers, furanone functional vinyl monomers, potassium sulfopropyl acrylate, potassium sulfopropyl methacrylate, n-vinyl pyrrolidone, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, vinyl monomers having a high refractive index, siloxane functional vinyl compounds, polyethylene glycol-silicone co-monomers having vinyl groups, tris acrylate, pyrrole, liquid crystalline vinyl monomers, liquid crystalline vinyl polymers, and combinations thereof. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the initiator is selected from the group consisting of redox initiators, free radical initiators, radiation, and combinations thereof. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the radiation is selected from the group consisting of heat, visible light, ultraviolet light, gamma ray, and electron beam. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the first hydrogel, the second hydrogel, or both, further comprises a bioactive agent. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the body lumen comprises a region between an animal's stomach and small intestine. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the first reactive precursor, the second reactive precursor, and the separate initiated precursor are introduced into the lumen by way of an endoscopic device. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the initiator is introduced into the lumen by the endoscopic device. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the composite hydrogel forms a gastric sleeve. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the body lumen comprises a blood vessel. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the first reactive precursor, the second reactive precursor, and the initiated precursor are introduced into the lumen on the surface of a balloon. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the balloon comprises a UV transparent material, and wherein the initiator comprises UV light. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein the composite hydrogel forms a stent. 16. The method of claim 1, wherein the hydrogel is selectively exposed to the initiator to initiate selective crosslinking of the separate initiated precursor. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the hydrogel is selectively exposed to the initiator by means of a mask which only permits discrete areas of the hydrogel to be exposed to the initiator.
