The effect of intravenous infusmg Gelofusine in a dose of 500ml
1000ml or 1500ml on blood rheology wasstudied in 30 patients undergoing gallbladder operations under epidural anesthesia. The results showed thathematocrit decreased (P<0.05) and red cell deformability index increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01)
