Blood rheology and aging
The flow properties of blood play significant roles in tissue perfusion by contributing to hydrodynamic resistance in blood vessels. These properties are influenced by pathophysiological processes, thereby increasing the clinical relevance of blood rheology information. There is well-established clinical evidence for impaired blood fluidity in humans of advanced age, including enhanced plasma a...
متن کاملPrinciples of blood rheology.
Blood rheology, that embraces the study of the de formation and flow of the blood, is an outbursting science. There are reasons to think that the develop ment of blood rheology (or Hemorheology) will imply deep changes in medical thought concerning the diag nosis, prognosis or therapy of several clinical disor ders. Hemorheology is not a specific field of medicine or of any of the classic speci...
متن کاملBlood rheology and hemodynamics.
Blood is a two-phase suspension of formed elements (i.e., red blood cells [RBCs], white blood cells [WBCs], platelets) suspended in an aqueous solution of organic molecules, proteins, and salts called plasma. The apparent viscosity of blood depends on the existing shear forces (i.e., blood behaves as a non-Newtonian fluid) and is determined by hematocrit, plasma viscosity, RBC aggregation, and ...
متن کاملBlood rheology in vegetarians.
1. Blood rheology has been quantified by measuring blood and plasma viscosity, packed cell volume (PCV), erythrocyte filterability and erythrocyte aggregation in forty-eight voluntary vegetarians and compared with matched controls. 2. Results show that in vegetarians, values for PCV were lower than those in controls, leading to reduced native blood viscosity. In addition PCV-standardized blood ...
متن کاملThe Rheology of the Blood
In the preceding paper (1b) a formula was developed for the lowering of the fluidity of a medium by a mixture of proteins, given the volume concentration of each and its fluidity-lowering constant. Whole blood is now shown to follow an essentially similar formula, except that the hemoglobin content is taken from the literature as the best available measure of the volume of the blood cells Delta...
