What happens during the disease - abnormal plasma viscosity
Abnormal plasma viscosity is a condition in which the viscosity of the blood plasma is higher than normal, resulting from an increase in the concentration of proteins, lipids, and/or red blood cells. the increase in plasma viscosity can cause an increase in blood pressure, impairing blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues, leading to tissue damage and organ dysfunction. in addition, the increased viscosity of the plasma can lead to an increase in the risk of clotting, which can lead to a stroke or heart attack.

Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal: Reduce abnormal plasma viscosity
- Prescribe medications to reduce inflammation.
- Order laboratory tests to measure plasma viscosity.
- Evaluate the patient's lifestyle and make necessary changes.
- Encourage the patient to maintain a healthy diet.
- Provide advice and guidance on lifestyle modifications.
- Administer intravenous fluids to reduce the viscosity of the plasma.
- Perform an ultrasound to monitor the condition.
- Recommend physical therapy to improve circulation.
- Prescribe anticoagulants to reduce the risk of blood clots.
- Monitor the patient's progress and adjust treatment accordingly.
15 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Abnormal plasma viscosity - Prevention
To prevent abnormal plasma viscosity, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate hydration. additionally, avoiding smoking and alcohol consumption can help to reduce the risk of developing this condition.
