ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for monitoring hemostasis in a connection with a recipient of an artificial surface device provide a multi-phase monitoring protocol. In a first, pre- and intra-operative phase, hemostasis of the recipient is monitored relative to preventing clot formation to achieve artificial surface patency. In a second, post operative phase hemostasis of the recipient is monitored relative to bringing about clot formation to achieve vascular recovery. In a third, stabilizing intensive care phase hemostasis of the recipient is monitored relative to balancing hemostasis toward an anti-coagulation bias. In a fourth, maintenance phase hemostasis is monitored relative to maintaining balanced hemostasis.
