Splenic haematocrit and the splenic plasma pool

British Journal of Haematology, 1987
Summary.A method was established for estimation of plasma volume and splenic plasma pool by quantitative scanning using 113mIn labelled transferrin (TF). The method was used in 12 patients with various haematological disorders and degrees of splenomegaly.

INCREASE IN HAEMATOCRIT IN BORDERLINE HYPERTENSIVE MEN

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1994
SUMMARY1. Haematologic parameters were measured in untreated borderline hypertensive (BHT) men, and weight and age matched with normotensive men to determine whether previously described increased haematocrit (Hct) in established hypertension is evident in borderline hypertension.2. Haematocrit was significantly increased in BHT men (mean 0.46, s.d.

The changes in blood resistivity with haematocrit and temperature

European Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 1975
The temperature dependence of the resistivity of blood samples with haematocrits from 16 to 52.5% has been investigated over the temperature range of 22 degrees ot 40 degrees C at a frequency of 100 kHz. The resistivity of whole blood increased with an increase in haematocrit and a decrease in temperature.

Manual haematocrit centrifuge

7th International Conference on Appropriate Healthcare Technologies for Developing Countries, 2012
Anaemia is common in clinical practice in tropical Africa where electric haematocrict centrifuges are expensive and electricity from the national grid is unreliable. Two models of manual haematocrit centrifuge have been developed to help in the successful management of patients with anaemia in the tropics. (3 pages)

The influence of the haematocrit on primary haemostasis in vitro

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005
SummaryPrimary haemostasis consists of platelet adhesion to subendothelial collagen, their activation and aggregation and finally the formation of a platelet plug. Erythrocytes are involved in this process because they flow in the center of the vessel and push platelets towards the site of action on the vessel wall and enhance shear forces, which ...

DIURNAL VARIATION IN HAEMATOCRIT VALUE IN PREGNANCY

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1974
SummaryA statistically significant diurnal variation in haematocrit has been observed in pregnant Nigerian women. Under conditions of rest, the haematocrit at 1500 hours averages 0.7 per cent less than at 0900 hours, with some individuals as much as 5 per cent lower.

The measurement of the haematocrit and flexibility of erythrocytes with a centrifuge

Biorheology, 1968
The rate of packing of the red blood cell column during centrifugation and the haematocrit have been found to depend on the cell flexibility. This has been altered by addition of formaldehyde, heating at 49°, pH, removal of oxygen and aldosterone. Measurements of the haematocrit by dilution of haemoglobin and I131 labelled serum albumin solutions ...

'Regulation' of capillary haematocrit.

International journal of microcirculation, clinical and experimental, 1984
The nature of blood as a suspension with characteristic flow properties is the basis of the uneven distribution of total red cell mass and plasma volume in the cardiovascular system. On one hand the fraction of blood volume occupied by red cells is reduced in the small blood vessels due to axial accumulation of erythrocytes in flow.
