Chan C, Murashige T, Bieritz S, Semenzin C, Smith A, Leslie L, et al.
J Biomech . 2022 Dec; 146:111394. PMID: 36462474
Cell exclusion in spiral groove bearing (SGB) excludes red blood cells from high shear regions in the bearing gaps and potentially reduce haemolysis in rotary blood pumps. However, this mechanobiological...

Chan C, Simmonds M, Fraser K, Igarashi K, Ki K, Murashige T, et al.
J Biomech . 2021 Dec; 130:110898. PMID: 34896790
Despite decades of technological advancements in blood-contacting medical devices, complications related to shear flow-induced blood trauma are still frequently observed in clinic. Blood trauma includes haemolysis, platelet activation, and degradation...

Seki H, Fujiwara T, Hijikata W, Murashige T, Tahara T, Yokota S, et al.
Artif Organs . 2021 Jan; 45(7):726-735. PMID: 33432615
Pump thrombosis induces significant complications and requires timely detection. We proposed real-time monitoring of pump thrombus in a magnetically levitated centrifugal blood pump (mag-lev pump) without using additional sensors, by...

Chan C, Inoue M, Ki K, Murashige T, Fraser J, Simmonds M, et al.
Artif Organs . 2020 Aug; 44(12):1286-1295. PMID: 32735693
Nonsurgical bleeding is the most frequent complication of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support. Supraphysiologic shear rates generated in LVAD causes impaired platelet aggregation, which increases the risk of bleeding....

Seki H, Fujiwara T, Hijikata W, Murashige T, Maruyama T, Yokota S, et al.
Artif Organs . 2020 May; 44(9):968-975. PMID: 32464697
Although the magnetically levitated centrifugal blood pump (mag-lev pump) is considered superior to other pumps in antithrombogenicity, thrombotic complications are still reported. Research into thrombus detection inside a mag-lev pump...

Hijikata W, Maruyama T, Murashige T, Sakota D, Maruyama O
Artif Organs . 2020 Jan; 44(6):594-603. PMID: 31904107
The use of contactless support technology for the impeller has led to an increase in the durability of ventricular assist devices (VADs), and these have been in clinical use worldwide....

Murashige T, Hijikata W
Artif Organs . 2019 Jul; 43(9):849-859. PMID: 31321785
Mechanical circulatory support devices have been used clinically for patients with heart failure for over 10 years. However, thrombus formation inside blood pumps remains a risk to patient life, causing...

Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2018 Nov; 2018:4516-4519. PMID: 30441355
Thrombus is one of the major problems in ventricular assist devices (VADs). However, method for detecting thrombus in early stage has not been established yet. In this study, we propose...

Fujiwara T, Sakota D, Ohuchi K, Endo S, Tahara T, Murashige T, et al.
Artif Organs . 2017 Mar; 41(10):893-903. PMID: 28321882
Complications due to pump thrombus remain the weak point of mechanical circulatory support (MCS), such as the use of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, leading...

Murashige T, Sakota D, Kosaka R, Nishida M, Kawaguchi Y, Yamane T, et al.
Artif Organs . 2016 Sep; 40(9):856-66. PMID: 27645396
Plasma skimming is a phenomenon in which discharge hematocrit is lower than feed hematocrit in microvessels. Plasma skimming has been investigated at a bearing gap in a spiral groove bearing...
