Occurrence of pulmonary thromboembolism immediately after arthroplasty.

abstract：:Using radionuclide methods the relationship between total and central blood volume and left ventricular function was studied in 12 patients with untreated essential hypertension and contrasted with the findings in eight normotensive subjects. The principal findings were of an increased stroke volume and end-diastolic ...
