Short high-shear stress does not directly activate platelets; leaves open confirmation in human in vivo models.
Does short-acting high shear stress directly induce platelet activation?
Direct shear-induced platelet activation is unlikely and appears mostly secondary to biochemical activation by mediators from passively destroyed platelets.
Wurzinger et al. (1985) studied this question.
