There are many factors that affect the increase or decrease of viscosity of the whole blood. Because of this, measuring the viscosity of whole blood is difficult to correlate with specific etiologies, so it tends to disregard the information on blood viscosity. This study is to find out the characteristics of the method of measuring the viscosity of whole blood using the parallel plate method, which is officially registered as a medical device with the approval of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA), and to apply it to the measurement of whole blood viscosity. The accuracy of the parallel plate measurement is verified by comparing with the measurement results using the commercially available scanning capillary method. In addition, statistically meaningful results are obtained between the viscosity and some components of the whole blood. It is expected that the research will be carried out to understand the correlation between the viscosity of whole blood and specific components of blood and to identify the prognostic signs of etiology in certain diseases, especially in cardiovascular and cerebral vessels diseases.

平行板流变仪测量全血粘度

有许多因素影响全血粘度的增加或降低。因此，测量全血粘度很难与特定病因相关联，因此往往会忽略有关血液粘度的信息。这项研究旨在找出使用平行板法测量全血粘度的方法的特点，该方法已在韩国食品药品监督管理局（KFDA）的批准下正式注册为医疗设备，并得以应用测量全血粘度。通过使用市售的扫描毛细管法与测量结果进行比较，可以验证平行板测量的准确性。另外，在粘度和全血的某些成分之间获得了统计上有意义的结果。
