Presentation title: Investigation of coagulation characteristics in animal blood used for development of cardiovascular devices
Contents: Cardiovascular devices such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenators have been widely used, and new devices with further antithrombotic properties have also been developed to prevent clot formation in the devices. The verification is performed by blood from animals like bovine and porcine before clinical trial. However, the coagulation characteristics and the difference between human and these animals have not been adequately investigated in the system. The objectives of this study were to compare the coagulation ability between human, bovine and porcine for development of cardiovascular device.
