Hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit increased reaching 16.4 ± 0.9 g/dL and 48.8% ± 1.6%, respectively, at 100 W and were maintained until recovery. Arterial oxygen content was constant during exercise and increased in the recovery period. [liebertpub.com]

It is important to quickly get treatment in case of these complications. Aspirin or Brufen or Ibubrufen should not be taken. [healthkart.com]
Prognosis
As the authors point out, AHF patients with mild creatinine elevation but without established renal failure have a better prognosis, since these changes are due to hemoconcentration (HC) rather than to true WRF. [revportcardiol.org]
Experimental model on animals has shown that a haemoconcentration carried a poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hence, the effectiveness of HCT to predict the prognosis of AHF patients remains elusive. [spandidos-publications.com]
The factors significantly associated with poor prognosis group (DHF/DSS) were anorexia, altered mentation, conjunctival injections, anaemia with Hb < 10 mg%, haemoconcentration with haematocrit > 40, thrombocytopenia and deranged liver enzymes SGOT. positive [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
