title: [Hypervolemic hemodilution with medium molecular-weight hydroxyethyl starch: effect of duration of administration on viscoelasticity of blood in IIa and IIb peripheral arterial occlusive disease].
abstract: 45 consecutive patients suffering from peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) stage IIa and b were integrated in a study about the effect of hemorheological parameters due to different application times. The patients were divided into 3 subgroups with different application times: group A received the infusion during 2, group B during 4, and group C during 6 hours. The used substance was 500 ml 6% HES 200,000/0.6-0.66. Except elasticity of group A all hemorheological parameters from group A to group C show a decrease after 6 hours, the trend to the same phenomenon could be observed after 24 hours in group B and C, while group A except plasma viscosity showed even a trend to increasing values compared to onset. As a conclusion of these results, long-time application should be preferred.
