Disclosed is an extracorporeal blood circulation device including a blood circulation circuit including a blood extraction line and a return line, a blood circulator in the circulation circuit and a control unit including a calculator arranged determining at least one parameter, recording it in a memory, and then comparing the standard value of the parameter with the recorded value. The device also includes a source of solution for liquefying blood clots, a device injecting and conveying the liquefaction solution in the circulation circuit, the control unit including a driver for the injector of the liquefaction solution. The control unit is arranged to actuate the driver when the value is exceeded, meaning that at least one clot has formed, the driver being arranged so that the liquefaction solution is present in the circulation circuit in an amount and for a time determined to be sufficient for liquefying the clot formed.

The present invention relates to the coating of a range of functional heparins onto the surface of a substrate for which hemocompatibility is a key functional characteristic, such that the functionality of the functional heparin is maintained. The approach employs a metal coordination complex to bind to the substrate with the functional heparin binding to the metal coordination complex to thereby impart hemocompatibility.
