| Abstract
|
:
|
Cardiovascular Biomaterials presents current research mate- rial developed by contributors from universities und profes- sional laboratories in the UK,USA, Canada, and Germany, each recognised for their abilities in this field.The book begins with an introduction to the work of developing a new artificial artery, and proceeds through the topics of the problems and developments in heart valve replacements, car- diac assist devices, mechanical properties of arteries and arterial grafts, biostability of vascular prostheses, blood compatibility in cardiopulmonary bypass, collagenin cardio- vascular tissues and the pacemaker system. Researchers, practitioners, graduate students, and libraries will find the book of interest.
