Abnormal blood rheology

Abnormal blood rheology can only be diagnosed by blood testing, but blood flow abnormalities can be divided into pathological and physiological. If it is pathological blood flow abnormality, there will be hemorrhagic stroke, nosebleed, or uterine bleeding, etc. If it is physiological blood flow abnormality, it will generally occur during menstruation and pregnancy, so female friends should also pay more attention to observe the changes in blood flow at this time.

If it is a physiological blood flow abnormality, it is recommended to check the blood routine to see if it is anemia. If the menstrual period is too heavy, it is not good. At this time, you need to increase nutrition appropriately and eat more nutritious and high-protein foods to improve the abnormal blood flow. Let's learn about the knowledge of abnormal blood flow, so that we can have more understanding of our own bodies in life.

The research objects, contents and scope of blood rheology are extremely broad. Such as vascular rheology, blood fluidity, viscosity, deformability and coagulation, etc. Hemorheology, which specializes in studying the changes in blood fluidity, blood components, and viscoelasticity of blood vessels and heart in various diseases, and understanding the pathophysiological significance of these changes in order to facilitate the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases, is also called clinical hemorheology or medical hemorheology. Hemorheology is an emerging discipline that has developed in the past twenty years. It mainly studies the macro and micro rheological laws of blood and blood vessels by observing rheological properties such as blood viscosity, flow, coagulation, deformation and aggregation of red blood cells, aggregation and release of platelets, and other indicators. The significance of blood rheology examination is that it has predictive value for diseases such as arteriosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, diabetes, cerebrovascular diseases, etc.

Abnormal blood rheology properties will cause blood circulation disorders in the body, among which blood viscosity is an important factor. Low or high blood viscosity represents the quality of blood transport or the amount of blood supply. Increased blood viscosity, higher circulatory resistance and slower blood flow will inevitably lead to a decrease in organ and tissue perfusion, especially in the microcirculation, causing ischemia and hypoxia, affecting tissue metabolism and function, and thus causing disease. Although there are many pathogenic factors such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, tumors, peripheral vascular disease and anxiety, they are all related to abnormal blood viscosity. As for diseases such as blood diseases, genetic or immune abnormalities, shock and poisoning, there will be more significant changes in blood rheology. All disease processes must go through one or more stages with high blood rheology indexes. This shows that blood viscosity is closely related to a series of pathological processes of the disease. Therefore, blood viscosity is an important indicator for diagnosing the development of various pathological processes. At the same time, through the detection of blood rheology, a reliable basis is provided for the occurrence, development, outcome and prognosis of certain diseases. At present, the research on the relationship between blood viscosity and diseases is becoming more in-depth and extensive both at home and abroad.

Blood rheology testing can detect abnormal blood rheology at an early stage and take measures to improve blood rheology in time, which can reverse the process and prevent further development of the disease. Early old age is an important period when blood viscosity and coagulation change from normal to abnormal, and it is also an important period for the occurrence of coronary heart disease. Delaying and preventing the aging of the cardiovascular and blood systems are important measures to prevent coronary heart disease. Regular blood rheology testing is of great significance for the prevention or early detection and early treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, regular blood rheology tests for middle-aged and elderly people can prevent problems before they occur, and this should become one of the health care measures for middle-aged and elderly people.

Now that we have a basic understanding of abnormal blood rheology, for the sake of our own health, it is still recommended that we go to a regular hospital for regular physical examinations, especially paying attention to blood examinations. Generally, blood-related diseases are more troublesome. I hope everyone can be healthy.
