Description
Yongsu Ha, Kangwoo Yi, Chul Park, Gyumin Kim, Daeyoung Choi, Jumjae Lee, and Namsoo Kim set normal blood values for racehorses in a 2024 paper. Whole blood viscosity shows how thick blood flows at distinct speeds. No firm reference range existed for Thoroughbred horses. The team used a new U-shaped tube device for the tests.
They measured blood from 51 Thoroughbred horses with the device. Values were set across a wide range of flow speeds. They then checked how thickness links to standard blood counts and chemistry. The findings give vets a reference set for horse health checks. The links with routine tests also help explain what drives blood thickness in horses.
