Simulated Surface-Induced Thrombin Generation in a Flow Field

A computational model of blood coagulation is presented with particular emphasis on the regulatory effects of blood flow, spatial distribution of tissue factor (TF), and the importance of the thrombomodulin-activated protein C inhibitory pathway. We define an effective prothrombotic zone that extend...
