Objectives: The object of this study is to check whether venesection therapy is safe. So we examine blood components, such as red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell (WBC), segmented cell, lymphocyte, monocyte, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCHC), platelet, before and after venesection.
Methods: 80 Stroke Patients participated in this study. Subjects were divied into two groups(experimental group, control group). experimental group(40 patients) had undergone venesection 5 times during 10 days. Blood was collected from each subject at the 1st day and the terminal day.
Results:
1. The RBC count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of RBC between experimental group(EG) and control group(CG) was insignificant.
2. The Hemoglobin count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of Hemoglobin between EG and CG was insignificant.
3. The Hematocrit count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of Hematocrit between EG and CG was insignificant.
4. The MCV count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of MCV between EG and CG was significant.
5. The MCH count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of MCH between EG and CG was insignificant.
6. The MCHC count was significantly decreased after venesection. Comparison of MCHC between EG and CG was insignificant.
7. The WBC count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of WBC between EG and CG was insignificant.
8. The Segmented Cell count was significantly decreased after venesection. Comparison of Segmented Cell between EG and CG was insignificant.
9. The Lymphocyte count was significantly increased after venesection. Comparison of Lymphocyte between EG and CG was insignificant.
10. The Monocyte count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of Monocyte between EG and CG was insignificant.
11. The Platelet count was insignificant after venesection. Comparison of Platelet between EG and CG was insignificant.
Conclusions: Venesection therapy may activate immune reaction. There is not the possibility of anemia. The results of this study suggest that venesection therapy is safe.
