  • Title: [Rheologic properties of blood in patients with complicated and uncomplicated course of acute myocardial infarct].
    Author: Razumov VB, Arutiunov GP.
    Journal: Kardiologiia; 1976 Apr; 16(4):53-8. PubMed ID: 1030756.
    Abstract:
    The examination was conducted in 77 patients with a varying course of acute myocardial infarction, in 10 normal individuals, 10 patients with angina pectoris, and 20 patients with post-infarction cardiosclerosis. The patients with acute myocardial infarction demonstrated a higher, than in the control group, blood viscosity, fibrinogen, hematocrit level and erythrocytes aggregation rate. The most significant changes in the rheologic properties of blood were observed in the cases of complicated myocardial infarction. Patients with severe coronary shock displayed both high and low levels of blood viscosity, fibrinogen and hematocrit, which may be due to the different stages of the coronary shock.
