Hemocompatibility measurements of SNAP-PDMS coated tubing for ECC testing. (A) Time-dependent effects of NO release from the ECC on platelet count over the course of the 4 h study (n=3). (B) Quantification of clot mass obtained from the thrombogenicity chamber. (C) Visual representation of the clotting that occurred in PDMS coated controls (left) and SNAP-PDMS coated circuits (right). P<0.05 was used for comparison. Error bars represent standard deviation.
