[Variations of hematic and plasmatic viscosity as a function of flow velocity, analyzed by means of an experimental model].
The authors have determined the hematic and plasmatic viscosity in 60 sound subjects, 30 men and 30 women respectively, at different values of cut drop, corresponding to the values that can be found at different levels of circulatory system. These subjects had value of Ht, total protidemy, cholesterolemy and trigliceryds, included in normal limits. For these determinations, made at constant temperature, they have used Well-Brookfield with a divergent angle of 0,8 degrees. In this way they could determinate the normality limits of hematic and plasmatic viscosity, in men and women, in connection with the physiologic modifications of flux speed. It has been confirmed the tixotropo behaviour of blood, whose viscosity increases exponentially for lessenings of cut drop and we have put this fact in touch with genesis of thrombosis. They haven't shown any expressive difference in the behaviour of the curves of two undergroups; the curve of middle values is higher for men, and it seems that this difference is owing to Ht. esclusively. In the end they have considered the curves of subjects that had values of viscosity different from normality; in this way they have found three different curves, in pathologic conditions.
