Summary: | Red blood cells (RBCs) must deform in order to traverse the microvasculature. [...]impairments of RBC deformability may reduce microvascular blood flow, and may be a mechanism for microvascular dysfunction in critical illness. [...]we set out to compare RBC filterability in septic vs. non-septic critically ill patients. |
