The Sedimentation Rate in Lobar Pneumonia:
en
dc.description.abstract
1. The sedimentation rate is greatly increased
throughout the febrile stage.
en
dc.description.abstract
2. The sedimentation rate tends to vary with the
white blood cell count, inversely till about the sixth
day, and directly thereafter.
en
dc.description.abstract
3. Body temperature exercises no influence on
the sedimentation rate or white blood cell count.
en
dc.description.abstract
4. The sedimentation rate is of help in diagnosis.
en
dc.description.abstract
5. The sedimentation rate is of great value in
the assessment of complications, especially of delayed
resolution.

dc.description.abstract
6. Ante mortem retardation of the sedimentation
rate invariably occurs.
