Nonthermal Plasma-Assisted Trauma Management: Hemostasis of Noncompressible Profuse Hemorrhage
Year: 2013
Type: article
Abstract: In this manuscript we discuss a chemical kinetic model of blood coagulation by treatment with nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge.We then add kinetic data into a computational fluid dynamics model of blood flow treated by plasma and show that we are able to induce hemostasis.We then present initial experimental validation of these computational models using in vitro bovine blood samples.
