Description
A hemorheology test assesses blood flow properties to help diagnose circulation disorders, clotting risks, or chronic conditions like diabetes—costs ¥200–500 in China, with ChinaMedicalHub assisting hospital booking and interpreter support.
Main Uses
Hemorheology tests are primarily used to assess the flow properties of blood, which can help in diagnosing and monitoring conditions related to blood circulation. These tests are applicable in scenarios such as evaluating cardiovascular diseases, assessing the risk of thrombosis, and managing patients with microcirculatory disorders.
Normal Range
The normal range for hemorheology tests varies by specific indicator. Common indicators include whole blood viscosity (low shear: 5-10 mPa·s, high shear: 3-6 mPa·s), plasma viscosity (1.5-1.8 mPa·s), hematocrit (male: 40-50%, female: 37-47%), and erythrocyte aggregation index (less than 2).
Low Values - Possible Causes
Possible causes of low values in hemorheology tests can include anemia, hypoproteinemia, overhydration, or certain medications that reduce blood viscosity.
High Values - Possible Causes
Possible causes of high values in hemorheology tests may include dehydration, polycythemia, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, or inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.
