[Evaluation of various hemorheological parameters in nonagenarians: evidence of an increase of fibrinogen].

Cardiovascular disease is the most frequent cause of mortality in the elderly. A reduced microvascular blood flow associated with an increase in atherosclerosis might contribute to age related increases in the incidence of ischemic vascular disease. In order to evaluate the effect of age on some haemorheological parameters, blood and plasma viscosity and fibrinogen have been measured in 10 healthy elderly subjects, aged between 88 and 96 years, compared with 15 healthy young subjects (mean age 37 years). Elderly subjects showed a significant increase in plasma fibrinogen (p less than 0.0005) and a trend to an increase in plasma viscosity, whereas no difference was present in blood viscosity. These data confirm that aging is associated with a greater deal of thrombotic risk factors, the most important of which seems to be fibrinogen.
