Non-physiological shear stress in Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) is considered to be an important trigger of blood damage, which has become the biggest shackle for clinical application. The researches on blood damage in literature were limited to qualitative but did not make much quantitative analysis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the quantitative influence of two flow-dependent parameters shear stress (rotational speed) and exposure time on the shear-induced damage of red blood cells and von Willebrand Factor (vWF)
