Abstract:
The goals of this project were to determine how hemodynamics and hemorheological change in patients diagnosed with different forms of atrial fibrillation; also, how relievers of changes in fibrinogen monitoring in patients with permanent, persistent, paroxysmal forms of arrhythmias. There was examined 30 patients (the average age of patients 65). Patients and control groups have been tested the following studies: index of erythrocytes aggregability, deformability, plasma viscosity to evaluate the blood rheological parameter, also -Fibrinogen to determine of coagulation condition. The Index of the Erythrocytes aggregation was done with the system of textural analyzes. These new innovative methods "Georgian Technique" is created by Georgian scientists and they are famous in the world as direct, numeral and exact. The index of the deformation of the erythrocytes was done with filtration method. Plasma viscosity was measured in the capillary viscosimeter in 370 C. According to the obtained data patients with atrial fibrillation have the same conditions of rheological and coagulation systems, despite of the forms of the atrial fibrillation. And it is different compared to the control group. In the statistical processing of the total row of fibrinogen, the patients were divided into 3 categories. As it turned out fibrinogen and Index of erythrocytes aggregation are in a linear relationship. The quantity of fibrinogen and of erythrocytes aggregation increase simultaneously and the greater the sequential number of the category is, the changes are more pronounced. However, the change/variability of each biological parameter, as shown from our data, is not uniform and linear. The obtained results clearly illustrate the existence of two parallel mechanisms in the body. These are on the one hand the systems of coagulation, anti-coagulation and fibtinollysis. These processes are in a state of the weighted condition, and they are characterized by dynamic equilibrium. On the other hand, the rheology system, which involves the combination of blood flow, blood velocity, vascular stiffness / elasticity, is characterized by one direction going on, with the adequacy and non-existing antipodal mechanisms. The hemorheological system does not have a physiologically balanced opposing anti-rheological system. All of this generate that the hemorheological status is very important in the development and formation of some disease. The arrangement of a rheologycal system is taking preventive character. On the one hand, the rheologycal system is a consolidation of diagnosis and evaluation of the mechanisms. Also, it is the treatment target. Normalization of them is very important in the therapeutic standpoint of the individual.
