A shear gradient-activated microfluidic device for automated monitoring of whole blood haemostasis and platelet function

The current hemostasis assays are unable to predict thrombotic or bleeding risk in clinics. Here, Jain et al. present a novel microfluidic device mimicking stenosed arterioles that determines clotting times in vitroand in extracorporeal circuits, offering a simple and reliable monitoring of blood ho...
