Abstract
Bergqvist, G. and Zetterström, R. (Department of Paediatrics, Karolinska Institutet, St Göran's Hospital for Children, Stockholm, Sweden). Blood viscosity and peripheral circulation in newborn infants. A study on resting flow. Acta Paediat Scand,63: 865, 1974.—Whole blood viscosity, hernatocrit and peripheral resting flow have been measured in 18 one to three days old newborn infants. There was no correlation between viscosity and blood flow or between viscosity and peripheral resistance. In seven infants isovolemic hernodilution was performed. This procedure did not alter the resting blood flow.Keywords
