Abstract:
It was our aim to evaluate the degree of impairment of the blood rheological properties according to the clinical stage of peripheral occlusive arterial disease. From the 2nd to the 4th clinical stage the following hemorheological changes were observed: a progressive increase of whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation and plasma fibrinogen levels, as well as a progressive decrease of erythrocyte filterability.
