Examinations of blood samples from healthy subjects and 16 patients suffering from chronic renal failure and purulent intoxication before and after hemodialysis and hemosorption showed changes in blood viscosity and red cell charges in the patients. Blood viscosity diminished following both hemodialysis and hemosorption, whereas red cell electric charge grew after hemodialysis, but fell after hemosorption. Correlations found between the viscosity, red cell charge and concentrations of urea and creatinine suggest a dependence of blood rheology and red cell surface electrostatic properties on azotemic intoxication. Thus, hemodialysis and hemosorption produce diverse effects on physiochemical characteristics of blood.
