    Author: Kunsch R, Bull K, Moufti M, Richter T, Schäbitz J.
    Journal: Folia Haematol Int Mag Klin Morphol Blutforsch; 1989; 116(5):803-5. PubMed ID: 2481631.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with the rheological properties of the blood of 38 male patients affected by ischaemic heart diseases (age: 40-75 years) and 19 healthy test persons of comparable age. The following haemorheological properties were measured. 1. Relative plasma viscosity 2. Erythrocyte aggregation 3. Erythrocyte deformability 4. Thrombocyte aggregation and 5. Whole blood viscosity. For the purpose of representing and assessing the results of measurement obtained a division was made into different groups according to the appearances of ischaemic heart disease (chronic ischaemic heart disease, unstable angina pectoris, acute heart infarct) and risk factors (smoking, diabetes mellitus, blood high pressure and hyperlipidaemia). The methods 1-3 proved to be especially suitable for representing gradual differences in the examined rheological parameters. The results obtained are discussed and evaluated.
