In 8 emergency care patients blood volume was determined using Cr5I labelled erythrocytes and indocyanine green (ICG). Prior to measurement of ICG in blood with a spectrophotometer, the blood was hemolyzed with Triton-X. A close correlation of r = 0.97 between the Cr51 and the ICGTR-X estimates was found; the ICGTR-X volume was about 3% lower than the Cr51 volume. In five additional in vitro experiments the ICGTR-X method was found to reflect real volumes with an insignificant error of less than 1%. Blood volume determination with ICGTR-X cannot be applied in cases of circulatory failure. ICG should be administered in a dose of 0.5 mg/kg of body weight. For calibration purposes, a two point calibration curve (point 1: point of intersection of x and y axis; point 2: 5 mg ICG/1 of blood) is sufficient. From these preliminary experiments it is concluded that the ICGTR-X method is a rapid and simple technique of blood volume determination with multiple reproducibility which can be carried out in any clinical laboratory.
A method for measuring circulating plasma volume (CPV) by diluting T-1824 indicator is described, making allowance for the exponential pattern of labeled serum albumin elimination from the vascular bed. The method consists in double collection of blood samples after intravenous injection of the indicator, computation of the constant of its extravasation rate, and extrapolation to the zero time. Analysis of the results obtained by this method and CPV values derived from the hematocrit and circulating blood volume--(CBV) estimated with the help of Albert table (1971), as well as with CPV value derived from the hematocrit and CBV measured by impedance method in 22 patients with slight uncomplicated ventral and diaphragmal hernias has demonstrated high linear correlation coefficients, +0.77 and +0.78 (p less than 0.01), respectively.
