Measurement of haemolysis in patients with prosthetic heart valves.
Haemolysis following prosthetic heart valve insertion can be precisely and sensitively measured by means of a 59Fe ferrokinetic technique. Results obtained in a small series of patients with either Starr-Edwards or Brunwald-Cutter valve replacement are presented.
