3 The New Biomarker Fractal Dimension, a measure of clot structure Collaborative work between the school of medicine and the school of engineering have been trying to solve this problem, by developing a global marker of haemostasis that quantifies clot structure This new marker is called fractal dimension Gel point and fractal dimension Applying numerous different Oscillating Forces at different frequencies. A frequency independent point is obtained highlighting the first point the blood becomes solid The Gel Point measurement provides the user with several important parameters: T GP gel time - the time it takes to form the clot D f fractal dimension a quantification of the microstructure of the clot G` - elasticity a measure of the elastic response of the clot as it forms G`` - viscosity (not shown) a measure of the viscous response of the material Fractal Dimension a New Biomarker Fractal dimension (df) provides a quantitative description of complex structures 3

Journal Thromb and Haem 2013 September; 11(9) Understanding cancer associated thrombosis You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee Noble S, et al Patient Preference and Adherence. 2015;9:

11 [ ] but they don t tell you you re gonna get clots after chemo, that s the one thing they haven t, they never said but we, we just put it down to, it s just my breathing [ ] just that one item of information that we weren t aware of. [VCC07] [ ] but I didn t realize that that was what causing it like, obviously a clot like you know, I didn t have any pain or anything, I just thought I was getting short of breath anyway like, do you know what I mean, because of the chemo and everything. [VCC04] [ ] in the beginning, it s just in and out sort of thing innit, take this, take that, don t get a lot of information. [RG05] [ ] having the cancer and then the thrombosis on top of it, erm, not knowing how bad it was when I went in, I know I was in terrific pain with my chest and that erm, it was frightening to be honest. [VCC01]] Nobody really explained, [ ]So you don t feel as though erm, you know, I think if it was a little bit more relaxed er, they probably would ve got somebody you know, from a department to come and explain it more. [VCC05] [ ] it s only when you start reading up about it, you sort of realize just how serious erm, you know, sort of blood clots are [ ] I was very lucky that you know, it was a fatal, you know attack, so er which is a little bit erm, scary. [VCC05]] You want to try to recover and get back to some sort of um, you know, some sort of normality. [RG06] [ ] they give me the option of doing em myself, that s when I decided to do em myself. And now I do em myself, I do em, you know, it s to suit me. So I do em in the morning. And the day s my own then like, do you know what I mean like? [VCC05] Right we sit here and I say I ve got to have me jab. I go in the bedroom [ ] shut the door, coz I got to pull this up, pull that down. It s only a little thing like that. [VCC01] 11
