PPT-Blood Volume Analysis Can Distinguish True Anemia from Hemodilution in Critically Ill

PY Van MD SD Cho MD SJ Underwood MS GJ Hamilton BS LB Ham MD MA Schreiber MD Background Hemorrhage leading cause of preventable death in trauma victims Decreased peripheral hematocrit pHct used as marker for blood loss. Mike Clark, M.D.. Anemia. is a decrease in the normal number of red blood cells (RBCs) or less than the normal quantity of hemoglobin in the blood. However, it can include decreased oxygen-binding ability of each hemoglobin molecule due to deformity or lack in numerical development as in some other types of hemoglobin deficiency..
