Blood volume in cardiac decompensation; determinations by use of radiochromium.

RADIOCHROMIUM HAS THESE ADVANTAGES FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF WHOLE BLOOD VOLUME: it remains in the erythrocytes many hours; it can be measured easily and accurately; the amount of radiation from it is very low.As measured by the radiochromium method, the whole blood volume of normal patients was determined to be 65.6 cc. +/- 5.95 cc. per kilogram of body weight or 2.49 +/- 0.28 liters per square meter of body surface. In a majority of a series of patients with heart disease, hypervolemia was found during right ventricular failure but not in those having left ventricular failure or mitral stenosis alone.
