Prediction of postdialysis serum sodium concentration and transcellular fluid shift without measuring body fluid volumes.

abstract：:Neurologic complications during on-pump cardiovascular surgery are often induced by mobilization of atherosclerotic plaques, which is directly related to enhanced wall shear stress. In the present study, we numerically evaluated the impact of dispersive aortic cannulas on aortic blood flow characteristics, with specia...
