[Rheological properties of the blood in hypertension patients]
Blood rheologic properties, and serum and erythrocyte membrane lipids were studied in 65 patients with essential hypertension, stage II-III, and 20 normal subjects. Essential hypertension was shown to be associated with marked rheologic disorders, such as increased packed cell volume and plasma viscosity. A greater rigidity of the erythrocyte membranes was also demonstrated.
