A Novel Simplified Model for Blood Coagulation: A piecewise dynamical model for thrombin with robust predictive capabilities
Realistic description of patient-specific mechanical properties of clotting dynamics presents a major challenge. Available patient-specific data falls short of robustly characterizing myriads of complex dynamic interactions that happen during clotting. We propose a simplified switching model for a key part of the coagulation cascade that describes dynamics of just four variables. The model correctly predicts prolonged activity of thrombin, an important enzyme in the clotting process, in certain plasma factor compositions. The activity sustains beyond the time which is conventionally considered to be the end of clotting. This observation along with the simplified model is hypothesized as a necessary step towards effectively studying patient-specific properties of clotting dynamics in realistic geometries.

Development of a Machine Learning Model and Mobile Application to Aid in Predicting Dosage of Vitamin K Antagonists Among Indian Patients
Patients who undergo mechanical heart valve replacements or have conditions like Atrial Fibrillation have to take Vitamin K Antagonists (VKA) drugs to prevent coagulation of blood. These drugs have narrow therapeutic ran…
Deep Learning-Enhanced Analysis for Delineating Anticoagulant Essay Efficacy Using Phase Microscopy
The coagulation of blood after it is drawn from the body poses a significant challenge for hematological analysis, potentially leading to inaccurate test results and altered cellular characteristics, compromising diagnos…
Mathematical modelling indicates that lower activity of the haemostatic system in neonates is primarily due to lower prothrombin concentration
Haemostasis is governed by a highly complex system of interacting proteins. Due to the central role of thrombin, thrombin generation and specifically the thrombin generation curve (TGC) is commonly used as an indicator o…
Modelling silicosis: dynamics of a model with piecewise constant rate coefficients
We study the dynamics about equilibria of an infinite dimension coagulation-fragmentation-death model for the silicosis disease mechanism introduced recently by da Costa, Drmota, and Grinfeld [Modelling silicosis: struct…
MathMulti-scale simulation of thrombus formation at LVAD inlet cannula connection: Importance of Virchow's triad
As pump thrombosis is reduced in current-generation ventricular assist devices (VAD), adverse events such as bleeding or stroke remain at unacceptable rates. Thrombosis around the VAD inlet cannula (IC) has been highligh…
