  • Title: [Hyper- or isovolemic hemodilution in patients with stage II peripheral arterial occlusive disease].
    Author: Kiesewetter H, Jung F, Blume J, Spitzer S, Birk A.
    Journal: Acta Med Austriaca; 1991; 18 Suppl 1():23-7. PubMed ID: 1719729.
    Abstract:
    The influence of hyper- and isovolaemic hemodilution using HES 200/0.5 6% (HES steril, Fresenius AG) on pain-free walking distance in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease stage II according to Fontaine was tested in a randomised investigation involving three groups. The increase in pain-free walking distance was significant both in the hypervolaemic and isovolaemic hemodilution group. The increase in both dilution groups did not differ but compared to a control group (infusion of Ringer lactate) it was significantly higher. Considerable changes concerning rheological parameters (decrease in haematocrit and plasma viscosity) were observed after isovolaemic hemodilution.
