Background: Shear stress-induced erythrocyte damage, namely hemolysis, is an important problem in the development of blood-contacting medical devices such as mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation combined with hemolysis prediction models have been widely used to predict hemolysis. With the development of hemolysis prediction models, the new hemolysis prediction model requires more experimental data to verify. In addition, the difference of in vitro blood-shearing device also affect the accuracy of hemolysis prediction. Methods: To address t...
