摘要
Blood rheologic properties were studied in 11 patients on Novacor LVAS support (1-126 days) as a bridge to transplantation. Overall, these patients showed slight increases in mean blood viscosity and red cell rigidity. Their mean plasma fibrinogen was in the upper normal range. However, the degree of rheologic change observed, and the individual factors affected most, were unique to each patient and hemorheologic results correlated well with the patient's clinical status.
