    Abstract
    Blood-contacting medical devices suffer from biofouling caused by proteins, platelets and other cells adhering to the surface which often leads to severe complications and eventual device failure. In particular, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life support treatment that is highly prone to coagulation issues due to a large blood-contacting surface area and turbulent blood flow. The ECMO circuits are constructed from catheters, tubing, and an oxygenator which all come into contact with blood and have several connections that alter the blood flow. The standard therapy to decrease ...
