Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9514224A1] Apparatus for determining the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ESR, of a sample of blood comprises a measuring cell (3) receptive of the sample of blood, electrical means (4-6) connected with the measuring cell for determining the capacitance (C) of the sample of blood received in the measuring cell (3), means (10-12; 15) for determining the haematocrit of the sample of blood, and electrical means (15) for determining the ESR using an empirical relationship expressing the ESR as a function of the capacitance (C) and the haematocrit (H) of the sample of blood.
