title: [The behavior of blood viscosity in polyglobulism].
abstract: In polyglobulic subjects we have found a variable reduction of plasmatic viscosity, with an increase of total viscosity. If the increase of Ht is the first cause of the increase of total viscosity, it is less simple to find the cause of plasmatic viscosity decrease; to this end we have analysed direct and indirect factors (coagulation factors, proteinous and lipidic components). We haven't found any significant qualitative alterations. It is proposed the importance of the interventions of basic proteins of polication type. To this end it has been studied the connection between plasmatic viscosity and ESR, being both influenced by the same factors, but in a contrary way and with variable results. Then the role of plasmatic viscosity in these subjects, in substitution of ESR, is significant.
