[Hemorrheology and microcirculation in women with pregnancy-induced hypertension]
1Hubei Maternity and Child Health Hospital, Wuhan.
Hemorrheologic studies were done in 100 patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) and 100 cases of normal pregnancies. The hematocrit values in normal pregnant women and patients with mild and severe PIH were 35.96 +/- 4.92, 36.25 +/- 3.47 and 37.8 +/- 4.32 respectively. The blood viscosity was significantly increased in patients with PIH as compared with that of normal pregnant women. The study of bulbar conjunctive indicates the presence of profound disturbance of microcirculation in patients with PIH. It is suggested that the treatment of PIH should focus on vasospasm relieving, blood volume expansion, reduction of blood viscosity and improvement of microcirculation.
