The Hematocrit of Capillary Blood
New England Journal of Medicine, 1955THE measurement of the packed red-cell volume (or hematocrit) of the venous blood has long been recognized as a useful aid in the study of blood in a large number of clinical conditions.

Capillary blood glucose monitoring
Nursing Standard, 2007This article, the first in a series of articles relating to clinical skills in nursing, outlines the procedure of capillary blood glucose monitoring. This is a convenient way of monitoring blood glucose patterns and can be a useful aid in guiding treatment changes in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, especially during periods of illness or ...

Capillary blood glucose monitoring
British Journal of Nursing, 1992The complications associated with inaccurate capillary blood glucose monitoring and poor control of diabetes are well known. This article explores the research identifying potential causes of inaccurate testing, examines ways of minimizing error and investigates quality control issues.

Platelet Counts in Capillary Blood
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1979Samples of venous and capillary blood were collected simultaneously from healthy adults to assess the accuracy of platelet counts in capillary blood as determined by an automated particle counter. The difference between the mean venous blood platelet count (248,300) and the mean capillary blood count (215,500) was highly significant (P less than .001).

?Seamless? endothelial cells of blood capillaries
Cell and Tissue Research, 1984The distribution and number of seamless endothelial cells (SE) were studied in various organs and tissues of rats, rabbits and humans (1) by light microscopy after silver impregnation of the endothelial cell boundaries, (2) by electron microscopy, and (3) in three-dimensional reconstructions of duodenal villi and renal glomeruli.

Capillary blood viscosity in microcirculation.
Clinical hemorheology and microcirculation, 2006As known, at the arteriolar level there is the highest resistance to the flow due to the section and to the velocity with an average pressure fall of 50 mmHg (from 85 to 35 mmHg). This resistance is expressed in sec(-1) by the ratio W/2r. This ratio is very high with an average value of 332 sec(-1) and viscosity at this high shear-rate is negligible ...

Red blood cell mechanics and capillary blood rheology
Cell Biophysics, 1991Blood contains a high vol fraction of erythrocytes (red blood cells), which strongly influence its flow properties. Much is known about the mechanical properties of red cells, providing a basis for understanding and predicting the rheological behavior of blood in terms of the behavior of individual red cells.

Pulmonary Capillary Blood Volume in Emphysema
American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1990We determined single breath diffusing capacity (DLCO) and pulmonary capillary blood volume (Vc) in a total of 110 patients, who were being evaluated for resectional lung surgery for a localized tumor or lesion. Pathologic assessment of emphysema was obtained in 55 cases who had resection of a lung or an upper lobe, based on a standard reference panel ...

Neonate capillary blood gas reference values
Clinical Biochemistry, 2005Because biological data are instrument-dependent and because technology has evolved over the last two decades, the published capillary blood reference values for blood gases, lactate, ionized calcium (iCa) and glucose may not reflect the present day situation. Hence, we report such values for healthy term neonates at 48 +/- 12 h of life.The Institution

Pulmonary Capillary Blood Pressure
1989When one considers the various vascular pressures throughout the body’s circulation, it is remarkable that the lungs’ circulation is such a high-flow circuit with low resistance. In addition, in various types of lung pathology it is even more remarkable that the alveoli do not easily fill with fluid, which would compromise the gas exchange function of ...
