Functional Effects of Exposure of Blood Coagulation Factors and Platelets to Synthetic Polymers

  • Chapter
Contemporary Topics in Polymer Science

Abstract

In recent years, widespread investigations of synthetic polymers available for cardiac valves, circulatory assist devices, artificial kidneys, heart-lung machines, and other devices for use in contact with blood have put a into focus the needs for antithrombogenic materials which would prevent thrombus formation. Despite many works on the development of antithrombogenic materials, it is not yet a perfectly antithrombogenic chemical structure. Blood circulating within the body comes in contact with a foreign surface so that coagulation often occurs within a few minutes.
