Polycythemia is defined as a venous hematocrite above 65%. The relationship between viscosity and hematocrite is almost linear till 65% and exponential thereafter. The etiology of polycythemia is related either to intrauterine hypoxia or secondary to fetal transfusion. Most polycythaemic infants are asymptomatic. Increased viscosity of blood may be associated with symptoms of hypoperfusion. Cli...

this study was conducted to determining the gpx, hemoglobin concentration (hb) and hematocrite percentage (hct) in blood samples of young ewes were gathered at different places of zagheh salman pastures in qom province. 15 blood samples were gathered through 8 flocks during autumn, winter and spring seasons randomly. at first the measures of gpx, hb and hct were determined and then gpx concentr...

Postpartum hemorrhage is an important cause of maternal morbidity and mortality after delivery. Active management of postpartum hemorrhage by an uterotonic drug decreases the rate of postpartum hemorrhage. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of rectal misoprostol for prevention of postpartum hemorrhage. This double blind randomized clinical trial was performed on full term pregnan...

this study was carried out within 7 months in dikjeh area, golestan province, iran. during that time the relationship between water salinity and ec with hematocrite, blood serum ionic parameters, growth, survival and stress indices in common carp (cyprinus carpio) were investigated. hematocrite as stress index was measured by hemocitometry standard method using microhematocrite reader. fish bio...

Polytrauma patients are at high risk to die due to acute physiological deterioration after a high injury load within the first hours. Trauma scores such as ISS, NISS and APACHE II and laboratory parameters were collected at admission. The aim of this study was to evaluate the independent predictors of early death of the polytrauma patient. A total of 696 patients (age 40.8 ± 15.5 years) who had...
