[Platelet aggregation, hemostasis and rheological properties of arterial and venous blood in patients with acute myocardial infarction]. / Agregatsiia trombotsitov, gemostaz i reologicheskie svoistva arteria'lnoi venoznoi krovi u bo'lnykh ostrym infarktom miokarda.

Platelet aggregability, coagulant and rheologic properties of arterial and venous blood were studied in 138 patients with acute extensive myocardial infarction. Heterogeneous changes were revealed in the aforementioned parameters during this condition. There was a lower arteriovenous ratio between hemostatic potential parameters.

[Analysis of whole blood viscosity in patients with acute myocardial infarction using a rotation viscosimeter]. / Opredelenie viazkosti tse'lnoi krovi s pomo'shchiu rotatsionnogo viskozimetra u bo'lnykh ostrym infarktom miokarda.

Rheologic characteristics of arterial and venous blood have been examined by Rotovisco RV-100 (Haake, FRG), a present-day rotation viscosimeter. Sixty-three acute myocardial infarction cases with intravenous infusion of sodium nitroprusside are analyzed. The detected time course of the reduction of arterial and venous blood viscosity during sodium nitroprusside infusion helps specify the pattern of this drug action in patients during the acute period of myocardial infarction.
