Effects of plasma viscosity modulation on cardiac function during moderate hemodilution

<b>Background</b> : Previous studies have found that increasing plasma viscosity as whole blood viscosity decrease has beneficial effects in microvascular hemodynamics. As the heart couples with systemic vascular network, changes in plasma and blood viscosity during hemodilution determin...
