Popis: This chapter describes the development of a poly(dimethylsiloxane)-based microfluidic platform that is able to holistically assess and visualize the entire hemostatic process in vitro. The microfluidic platform includes (1) integration of intact endothelium, (2) physiological flow conditions, (3) controlled mechanical injury to study global hemostatic potential of a patient's whole blood samples in a microvascular model and for dissecting pathophysiologic mechanisms of diseases.
