Zusammenfassung: | Aims
To identify different red blood cell mass (RBCM) profiles, separate from haemoglobin concentrations, and their impact on blood volume expansion and clinical outcomes in chronic heart failure.
Methods and results
RBCM was measured at hospital discharge using standardized nuclear medicine indicator‐dilution methodology in patients following diuretic treatment for clinical congestion. Individual RBCM phenotypes were prospectively identified and analysed for heart failure‐related mortality or first rehospitalization over 1 year.
Of 132 patients, 42 (32%) demonstrated normal RBCM, 36 (27%) RBCM deficit (true anaemia), and 54 (41%) RBCM excess (erythrocythemia). Dilutional ‘anaemia’ defined by haemoglobin |
