Although there has been a decrease in the incidence of this outcome over the past 25 years, the incidence of 2.5 for the two-year period is still well below the incidence of 13 cases per 10,000 anesthesias for 2007, as observed in a previous study.…”

[10] Mientras que, los glóbulos blancos y las plaquetas poseen un tamaño muy pequeño, por lo que su rol en la viscosidad sanguínea es menor.…”
