In a method for rapid determination of the sedimentation of venous blood, the blood, after the necessary additives have been added, is placed in a sedimentation test tube (6), the tube, at the start of the test, is disposed at an angle deviating from the vertical, and optionally after a period of rest in the passive inclined position, there is imparted to the tube (6) a simultaneous rotating movement about its own axis as well as an uprighting movement about its longitudinal axis. The reading of the sedimentation is taken immediately after the tube (6) has reached the vertical position or following a period of rest in a passive vertical position. <IMAGE> |
