Leah Williams: Evaluating Medical Device Haemocompatibility Under ISO 10993-4
Leah Williams, Biocompatibility Engineer II at ICU Medical, shared a post on LinkedIn:
”Direct or indirect contact with blood?
You’ll need to look to ISO 10993-4, the standard guiding haemocompatibility evaluation for medical devices that contact blood.
In the latest episode of Bite-Sized Biocompatibility, Beau Rollins and I unpack how the standard defines interactions between device materials and blood components and what evaluation is needed as a result – whether that’s for thrombosis, haemolysis, coagulation, complement activation, or platelet or leukocyte responses.
Whether you’re a fan of vampires or not, this episode is definitely one to sink your teeth into!
