Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate in vivo antithrombosis property of optimized FW-Ⅱ axial blood pump and provides evidence for future clinical use.MethodsA left ventricle-pump-descending aorta bypass model was established in five healthy sheep (60-70 kg) and the circulation of these sheep was assisted by FW-Ⅱ axial blood pump for 2 weeks.In preoperative and postoperative day 1,2,3,7,10 and 14,blood was drawn from the jugular vein to examine platelet activation and leukocyte-platelet aggregation respectively quantified with Annexin V,CD41/61 and CD14-PE by flow cytometry assays.Immediately after termination of the experiment,FW-Ⅱ axial blood pumps were explanted and each part was inspected for thrombus formation.Macroscopic and histological examinations were checked on heart,brain,kidney and spleen,respectively for thrombosis.ResultsCompared with preoperative baseline,the number of platelet activation and leukocyte-platelet aggregation reached a peak at postoperative day 2,it retained a high level within 7 days,then gradually decreased,but was still higher than preoperative level at dayl4.According to rotating speed,the number of platelet activation and platelet-leukocyte aggregation were lowest at the speed of 8000 r/min Minus thrombus were found in the front and rear hub of the pump rotor,and there was no thrombus at other components (flow straighter,impeller and pump housing).There were no ischemia and infarction evidences in macroscopic and histological examination of the heart,brain,kidney and spleen.ConclusionFW-II axial blood pump can be used to assist left ventricular circulation for 2 weeks with a satisfactory antithrombosis property.The level of platelet activation and leukocyte-platelet aggregation can be reduced to a lowest level at an optimized pump rotating speed.
