  • Chapter
Advances in Cardiovascular Engineering

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 235))

Abstract

Perfusion models that allow exposure of artery subendothelium, collagen and other surfaces to non-anticoagulated blood (ex vivo models) or to anticoagulated blood (in vitro models) under well controlled experimental conditions have given much useful information about thrombotic mechanisms(1–15) This includes a better understanding of molecular mechanisms of platelet-surface adhesion(3,6,13,16–19), platelet-platelet interactioe(3,13,16,20–23), and the interplay between coagulation and platelet function in thrombus formation(4,12–14,22–27) However, the blood flow, and in particular the shear rate, plays an unambiguous role in these events(1–3,13,14,16.17,19,21–25,28,29).
