Abstract
A change in filterability of erythrocytes through a cellulose filter with pores 7 microns in diameter was examined in 67 patients with acute myocardial infarction. Dynamic evaluation of the filterability was compared with a process of necrotic focus development in time. The filterability was ascertained to have various phases coinciding with the development phases of a necrotic focus and to be an early prognostic indicator of myocardial infarction.
