A novel model for hemolysis estimation in rotating impeller blood pumps considering red blood cell aging

For blood pumps with a rotating vane-structure, hemolysis values are estimated using a stress-based power-law model. It has been reported that this method does not consider the red blood cell (RBC) membrane’s shear resistance, leading to inaccurate estimation of the hemolysis value. The focus of thi...
