Abstract

A decreased capillary resistance, associated with hypoprothrombinemia, hypo-fibrinogenemia and thrombocytopenia, has been observed after infusions of dextran, PVP, pectin esters and methyl cellulose; whereas normal findings were seen after isotonic saline or gelatin injections. Studies on intact dogs, splenectomized dogs and splenectomized animals with RES block after massive infusions (40 cc/kg) are reported. Animals given daily infusions (10-22 cc/kg) for 21 days show the cumulative effects of these plasma expanders.Evidence is presented which emphasizes that reticuloendothelial system deposition, depression in platelet formation, and liver retention are important factors related to the altered capillary permeability.
