HyperShear in a Channel: A Microfluidic Facsimile of Ventricular Assist Devices to Reduce Thrombotic Risk and Enhance Patient Safety
This technology utilizes device thrombogenicity emulation--a method which mimics the shear stresses that would be exhibited within the patient in order to assess proper anti-thrombolytic therapies. Shear stresses are observed in a microfluidic facsimile of a ventricular assist device (VAD), which can quickly be translated to assess the personal risk...
