The Morphology of Red Blood Cells an Etiology of Tissue Hypoxia?
Inflexible red blood cells could be one the contributing factor in restriction of blood flow in the micro-vascular system. The other is vasoconstriction. Normally, the red blood cells are disc shaped and quite flexible. In the case that the red blood cells are not flexable - the pateint is at risk for reduced blood flow and all of the ramifactions that pertain.
