Quantifying the relationship between vascular injury and the dynamic bleeding rate requires a multiscale model that accounts for changing and coupled hemodynamics between the global and microvascular levels. A lumped, global hemodynamic model of the human cardiovascular system with baroreflex control was coupled to a local 24-level bifurcating vascular network that spanned diameters from the muscular artery scale (0.1–1.3 mm) to capillaries (5–10 μm) via conservation of momentum and conservation of mass boundary conditions. For defined injuries of severing all vessels at each nth-level, the changing pressures and flowrates were calculated using prescribed shear-dependent hemostatic clot growth rates (normal or coagulopathic). Key results were as follows: 1) the upstream vascular network rapidly depressurizes to reduce blood loss; 2) wall shear rates at the hemorrhaging wound exit are sufficiently high (~10,000 s −1 ) to drive von Willebrand factor unfolding; 3) full coagulopathy results in &gt;2-liter blood loss in 2 h for severing all vessels of 0.13- to 0.005-mm diameter within the bifurcating network, whereas full hemostasis limits blood loss to &lt;100 ml within 2 min; and 4) hemodilution from transcapillary refill increases blood loss and could be implicated in trauma-induced coagulopathy. A sensitivity analysis on length-to-diameter ratio and branching exponent demonstrated that bleeding was strongly dependent on these tissue-dependent network parameters. This is the first bleeding model that prescribes the geometry of the injury to calculate the rate of pressure-driven blood loss and local wall shear rate in the presence or absence of coagulopathic blood.    NEW &amp; NOTEWORTHY We developed a multiscale model that couples a lumped, global hemodynamic model of a patient to resolved, single-vessel wounds ranging from the small artery to capillary scale. The model is able to quantify wall shear rates, seal rates, and blood loss rates in the presence and absence of baroreflex control and hemodilution.
