Blood Viscosity
Small amounts of potassium oxalate probably have no effect on the viscosity of the blood and changes hitherto ascribed to it can be attributed either to variation in carbon dioxide content or to sedimentation of the red blood cells. The viscosity of blood when exposed to the air increases rapidly. This change accompanies a loss of carbon dioxide and can be prevented by stoppering the container ...
متن کاملBlood viscosity in subjects with normoglycemia and prediabetes Running title: Blood viscosity and blood glucose
Objective: Blood Viscosity (BV) is higher in diabetic patients, and might represent a risk factor for the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. However, data in subjects with normal glucose or prediabetes are missing. In the present study we evaluated the relationship between BV and blood glucose in subjects with normal glucose or prediabetes. Research Design and Methods: Enrol...
متن کاملWhole blood viscosity and cerebral blood flow.
BLOOD has anomalous rheological properties, particularly in certain disease states. It may therefore be necessary to consider these properties when attempting to assess and perhaps to improve the state of a patient's cerebral circulation. So what evidence is there that cerebral blood flow (CBF) is affected by viscosity? Before attempting to answer this question, one should be aware of what infl...
متن کاملHemodilution, Tonicity, and Blood Viscosity.
Since the introduction of intravenous therapy, fluids containing glucose or saline in relatively isotonic concentrations have far exceeded others in use. Within the last decade new techniques in many areas of diagnosis and treatment have required that fluids of various tonicity and viscosity be introduced into the blood stream with such rapidity or in such great volume as to preclude adequate d...
متن کاملBlood viscosity after splenectomy.
Blood viscosity and its contributory factors--namely, plasma viscosity, fibrinogen concentration, packed cell volume, red-cell deformability, and platelet count--were measured in 20 asymptomatic patients after splenectomy and compared with those in controls. Whole-blood viscosity was significantly increased after splenectomy and was associated with increased platelet count and, more importantly...
