RISMathematical Model for Pressure Losses in the Hemodialysis Graft Vascular Circuit
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Stenosis-induced thrombosis and abandonment of the hemodialysis synthetic graft is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. The graft vascular circuit is a unique low-resistance shunt that ...
Relative Contribution of Wall Shear Stress and Injury in Experimental Intimal Thickening at PTFE End-to-Side Arterial Anastomoses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Background : Intimal hyperplastic thickening (IHT) is a frequent cause of prosthetic bypass graft failure. Induction and progression of IHT is thought to involve a number of mechanisms related ...
