Abstract:
... The blood compatibility of various intravascular (IV) devices (e.g., catheters, sensors, etc.) is compromised by activation of platelets that can cause thrombus formation and device failure. Such devices also carry a high risk of microbial infection. Recently, nitric oxide (NO) releasing polymers/devices have been proposed to reduce these clinical problems. CD47, a ubiquitously expressed transmemb ...
