Abstract: The blood coagulation system is very important to life. This paper presents a mathematical blood coagulation model for the extrinsic pathway. This model simulates clotting factor VIII which ...

The following is a summary of "Bleeding Risk Assessment with Thromboelastography in Interventional Pulmonology Procedures," ...

Savaysa is classified as a factor Xa inhibitor. It works indirectly by stopping the red blood cells from clotting by preventing the “coagulation cascade” that forms blood clots. Savaysa is available ...

Antihemophilic Factor binds factor IXa along with calcium and phospholipid. This complex converts factor X to factor Xa to ...

Because these products inhibit at least one, and often multiple, factors in the clotting cascade, patients have an increased risk of bleeding with invasive procedures. Patients also have an ...

Professor Casewell’s team is investigating exactly which parts of the blood-clotting cascade it targets. It could lead to treatments for diseases that involve blood clots, which includes strokes ...

When exposed to the circulation, the surface of bare metal devices such as FDs is coated with proteins that can trigger undesirable reactions including inflammation, contact activation of the ...
