Abstract

Plasma colloid oncotic pressure (COP) is an important determinant of interstitial oedema and relates to mortality in critically ill patients. A simple device for the routine measurement of COP has been developed which gives stable readings in less than three minutes approximately 0.2 ml. of plasma. It is easy to calibrate, simple to use and has a short equilibration time.
