Abstract
Previous investigations of blood volume after infusion have shown conflicting results.In 40 healthy persons the blood volume was measured (I131 tagged human albumin) before, 1 hour and 4 hours after infusion of 500 ml dextran −6% and 10% solution.The increase in blood volume corresponds to about 18 ml per gram dextran (substance).The effect of anaphylactic reactions in lowering the blood volume is shown, and the relation between blood-dextran concentration and plasma proteins is investigated.
