An Index of the Sedimentation Rate on a Mathematical Basis.
MANSY observers maintain that in the Westergren method of determining the sedimentation rate (S.R.) of red blood cells (R.B.Cs.) on a column of blood 200 mm. high, the fall at the end of the first or second hour gives all the required information. In a method affected bymany variable factors it is inadvisable to over-elaborate the technique; at the same time it is worth while to obtain the maxi...
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 کاملCan we consider erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein as a severity index in pemphigus vulgaris?
Background: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are 2 inflammatory indicators that increase in many pathologic and physiologic conditions. Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune skin disease in which autoantibodies against desmogleins cause acantholysis. In this study we have measured ESR and CRP levels in patients with PV to evaluate the relationship between an ...
متن کاملC-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate: Continuing role for erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Background: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) tests are often done to detect or monitor patients with suspected inflammatory disorders. The objective of the study was to ascertain if the manual ESR test added value to the information available from automated CRP results alone. Methods: In this retrospective, observational study at a safety-net hospital, the ESR a...
متن کاملComparison of zeta sedimentation ratio with Westergren sedimentation rate.
Zeta sedimentation ratio (ZSR) is a simple, rapid and reproducible test which is not influenced by variables like sex and anemia. There is good correlation with Westergren erythrocyte sedimentation ratio (ESR) in normal and hospital population. Limitation of packing force affects the use of the procedure in polycythemia and in patients with ZSR greater than 80%.
