RED CELL, PLASMA, AND BLOOD VOLUME IN HEALTHY WOMEN MEASURED BY RADIOCHROMIUM CELL-LABELING AND HEMATOCRIT*

Whole Blood Volume Determined by Radiochromium - Tagged Red Cells

IN CONGESTIVE heart failure the blood volume has generally been considered to be elevated." 6, 14, 15, 16, 18, 21t 24 Recent investigations by Prentice and co-workers19 and by Ross and associates,20 using P32-tagged erythrocytes, have suggested that the blood volume in heart failure often is not increased. The importance of hypervolemia in both the physiology and therapy of cardiac failure has ...

Effect of Thyroid Dysfunctions on Blood Cell Count and Red Blood Cell Indice

Abstract Background Thyroid hormones have a crucial role in metabolism and proliferation of blood cells. Thyroid dysfunction induces different effects on blood cells such as anemia, erythrocytosis leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and in rare cases causes’ pancytopenia. It also alter RBC indices include MCV, MCH, MCHC and RDW. Thus this study attempted to evaluate effect of hypo & hyperthyroi...

Red cell and plasma volume in newborn infants.

Schiicking (I1879) estimated the total blood volume of six newborn infants. In two infants, whose cords had been tied soon after delivery, blood volume was distinctly smaller than in four other infants whose cords had not been tied until some minutes after delivery. However, these estimates were made by Welcker's method and were by no means exact. The plasma volume of newborn infants was measur...
