The hemorheological effects of autologous blood storage with or without the use of
erythropoietin were examined before surgery for valvular disease. There was no rheological …

Authors' Synopsis The circulatory effects of serial increases in the venous filling pressure
were studied in seven patients shortly after aortic valve homograft replacement and left …

Intravascular hemolysis was studied in a large, non‐selected series of patients with aortic
and mitral valvular disease or valve prostheses in order to clarify the mechanisms of the …

Objective: To investigate haemorheological changes in patients undergoing coronary artery
bypass grafting and to determine whether the protective effect on haemorheology of high …

The influence of extracorporeal circulation on red blood cells and flow properties of blood
was studied in 10 patients undergoing aorta-coronary bypass grafting. Blood samples were …

Patients with ischemic heart disease and erythrocytosis may experience a decrease in the
frequency of anginal attacks and an increase in effort tolerance following reduction of the …

Blood rheologic parameters were examined in 16 patients without multiple organ failure 2
weeks after coronary artery surgery. The whole blood viscosity (shear rate= 94.5 sec− 1) …

Blood and plasma viscosity has been controlled in a group of patients undergone to aorto-
iliac reconstruction and in a group of control after thyroidectomy, cholecystectomy, and …

The objective was to investigate in vivo the rheological effects of plasma substitutes (fluid
gelatin, dextran 40, dextran 60, hydroxyethylstarch). The study was performed during a …

The degree of hemolysis has been evaluated in a series of 51 non‐selected patients with
mitral valvular disease and 21 cases with prosthetic mitral valves; the findings were …
