Stability Assessment of Minor-Caliber Vessel Perfusion System for Ex Vivo

Article Preview

Abstract:

Biggish animal models were applied in perfusion system for ex vivo research. But the disadvantages is the needs for more research funding and better surgical skills to perform which many researchers lack. A minor-caliber vessel perfusion system for ex vivo was designed and constructed to simulate pulsatile situation in vivo. The parameters mimicked the physiological measures of New Zealand rabbit. Pulse is 250 beats per minute. Diastolic blood pressure is 12.666KPa, and systolic blood pressure is 14.665KPa. The vessel perfusion system can regulate pulse pressure, the state of laminar flow, and shear stress. To culture several vessels simultaneously for control, the pressures data of 4 baths was analyzed with one way analysis of variance. The results show that the perfusion system is stable, and pressure difference of 4 baths is not significant.
