638 CHAN ET AL. and differential pressure across the pumps in standard flow conditions
were (Q= 5±0.25 L/min; ΔP= 100±3 mm Hg) and pediatric flow conditions were (Q= 2.5±0.25
L/min; ΔP= 68±5 mm Hg). However, limited in vitro hemocompatibility evaluation studies
have been reported in pulmonary flow conditions so far. This study aimed to evaluate the
hemocompatibility of an LVAD used for RVAD support in the clinically used modes of
reduced speed and outflow graft banding under a pulmonary flow conditions (Q= 5±0.25 …
