Kompensation und Dekompensation des Kreislaufs

Total Red Cell Volume, Plasma Volume, and Sodium Space in Congestive Heart Failure 1

“…Most of the series of blood volumes reported to date on this question have been measured with the dye T-1824 (14), although other dyes have been used (5)(6)(7). The errors in the dye methods have been repeatedly pointed out (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16).…”

“…These likewise have been noted to return to the established normal levels upon return to the compensated state. However, it should be noted that Wollheim (7), using a modification of the dye method of Keith and Rowntree, (17), noted two types of congestive failure; the first with high and the second with low blood volumes. In both groups the blood volume returned toward normal as compensation was achieved.…”

Clinical Studies of the Blood Volume. Iii. Changes in Blood Volume, Venous Pressure and Blood Velocity Rate in Chronic Congestive Heart Failure

“…Bock (1), Brown and Rowntree (2), Thompson (3), Schiirmeyer (4), Mies (5), using modifications of the original dye method of determining the blood volume; Plesch (6), using the carbon monoxide method, and Ewig and Hinsberg (7); using a combination of the two methods, have reported the blood volume as variably increased during cardiac decompensation. The most extensive studies have been made by Wollheim (8,9,10,11), using a modification (12) of the original Keith-Rowntree technique, Levin (13), and Goldbloom and Libin (14). On the basis of their studies these authors have described two types of congestive failure; the so-called " plus " and " minus " types.…”
