On the temporal development of erythrocyte sedimentation rate using sealed vacuum tubes.

Abstract:

:The temporal development of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was studied in wide, short vacuum tubes. It was found that in about 3% of the specimens arriving in the laboratory the ESR developed in three different phases during 60 min, whereas the other showed only two. The specimens with three phases behaved similarly in the Westergren method. It was shown that the Westergren ESR can be estimated with an acceptable accuracy already from measurements obtained after 30 min. Reproducibility and precision were improved by using a special instrument. Several advantages by this procedure were recognized, e.g., quicker results, identification of several otherwise missed rapid ESR. Accurate timing of the readings further improves accuracy and precision, and permits estimation of ESR (Westergren) up to 100 mm. In view of the obvious phases in the development of the ESR, it is proposed that this abbreviation is interpreted as erythrocyte sedimentation reaction and that the kind of quantity that is length is expressed in mm.
