erythrocyte sedimentation rate measurement using as a rapid alternative to the westergren method
introduction: erythrocyte sedimentation rate (esr) remains as one of the most reliable tests in clinical practices. yet its use is time consuming and requires a large blood sample. the aim of this study was assessing a faster and reliable method of esr estimation. methods: an esr estimation method was described and performed on 108 patients using capillary tube (micro esr) and capillary periphe...
متن کاملA microfluidic erythrocyte sedimentation rate analyzer using rouleaux formation kinetics
Red blood cells form face-to-face linear or branched structures, called as rouleaux, under static conditions or low shear rates in the presence of appropriate macromolecules (Baskurt et al. 2011a; Chien 1975; Merrill 1969; Neu and Meiselman 2007). This process is reversible, and cells can be dispersed individually when a disaggregating shear rate is applied to the cells (Baskurt et al. 2011b; L...

متن کاملErythrocyte sedimentation rate.
In their article entitled: “The decrease in erythrocyte sedimentation rate related to general anesthesia”, Clin Hemorheol Microcirc 35 (2006) 459–462, Caglayan and co-workers have investigated the effects of general anesthetic agents on erythrocyte properties, reflected in changes in the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). In their introduction the authors referred to the one-hour ESR method ...
متن کاملAberration of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate by Zinc Nanoparticles
Dear Editor, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a useful basic clinical pathology laboratory investigation. It can be helpful in diagnosis and follow-up of several diseases. At present, a new automated method with proven reliability is available for ESR test (1). Here, the authors report on observation on a laboratory experiment to test the effect of zinc nanoparticles on ESR results. The...
