Abstract
Objective To investigate hemorheology changes and relationship in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovasular disease. Methods Hemorheology index were detected in 150 patients suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease and 30 well-beings as control group. Results The hemorheology index in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease patients were much higher than the control group. The erythrocyte dysmorphia coefficient、erythrocyte collecting coefficient in disease group were much higher than the control group's. We used the drugs that can ameliorate the patient's blood viscous status in the disease group. The paitent's erythrocyte dysmorphia coefficient heightened and blood viscosity decreased. Conclusions The hyperviscosity in blood is related to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. The use of the drug that can ameliorate blood viscous status is helpful in the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease in elderly.
