Hemoglobin concentration, total hemoglobin mass and plasma volume in patients: implications for anemia
In practice, clinicians generally consider anemia (circulating hemoglobin concentration < 120 g.l-1 in non-pregnant females and < 130 g.l-1 in males) as due to impaired hemoglobin synthesis or increased erythrocyte loss or destruction. Rarely is a rise in plasma volume relative to circulating total hemoglobin mass considered as a cause. But does this matter? We explored this issue in patients, ...
متن کاملSteady state hemoglobin concentration and packed cell volume in homozygous sickle cell disease patients in Lagos, Nigeria
Background: Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder of hemoglobin causing myriad of pathology including anemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the baseline values of steady state hemoglobin and packed cell volume as a guide to managing the early recognition of hemolytic crises in sickle cell anemia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the sickle cell patients atte...
متن کاملMethods for measuring plasma hemoglobin in micromolar concentration compared.
Of eight methods examined for measuring plasma hemoglobin in micromolar concentration, all exhibited acceptable linearity, reproducibility, and concurrence except when specimens were icteric or lipemic or contained methemoglobin or methemalbumin. Measurement of absorbance at 578 nm with an Allen correction permits precise assay of plasma oxyhemoglobin concentration as low as 0.01 g/L (1 mg/dL, ...
متن کاملHemoglobin Charge Dependence on Hemoglobin Concentration in Vitro
Studies have been made of the dependence of the charge of the hemoglobin molecule on hemoglobin concentration in the concentration range between 3 and 11 mmolal. The charge has been determined by measuring the distribution of (42)K between a hemoglobin solution in a cellophane bag and an external solution. The pH was 6.6, the K concentration was 10 mM, and the temperature was 4 degrees C. The c...
متن کاملHemoglobin and Plasma Protein
Given healthy dogs, fed abundant iron and protein-free or low protein diets, with sustained anemia due to bleeding, we can study the capacity of these animals to produce simultaneously new hemoglobin and plasma protein. The reserve stores of blood protein producing materials in this way are very largely depleted, and levels of 6 to 8 gm. per cent for hemoglobin and 4 to 5 gm. per cent for plasm...
