ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the effects of rolling blood pump parameters and blood concentration on hemolysis during extracorporeal circulation.Methods:According to the extracorporeal hemolysis experiment standard, an extracorporeal circulation experimental device was built to analyze the influences of circulation time (0 ~ 90 min), blood flow rate (1~4 L/min), and blood volume fraction (60%, 70%) on the hemolysis of blood samples in the circulatory system. The results of hemolysis were analyzed using first-order linear regression.Results:The longer the blood pump circulation time, the greater the hemolysis rate; the higher the blood flow rate, the greater the hemolysis rate. When the flow rate is 1 and 2 L/min, the hemolysis rate curve has an inflection point that changes with time, i.e. when the circulation time exceeds 30 min, the slope of the hemolysis rate curve suddenly increases. However, when the flow rate is 3 and 4 L/min, the hemolysis mutation phenomenon is not obvious. Compared to the blood sample with blood volume fraction of 70%, a blood sample with a blood volume fraction of 60% is less prone to hemolysis.Conclusions:The longer the blood pump circulation time and the higher the blood flow rate, the more easily the red blood cells are destroyed, i.e. the hemolysis rate is directly proportional to the circulation time and blood flow rate. When the circulation time increases to a certain degree, an inflection point appears in the hemolysis rate curve, and the hemolysis trend will be significantly enhanced.
