We studied the quantitative and qualitative behaviour of white blood cells (WBCs) at rest and after standard treadmill exercise in 20 male stage II peripheral vascular disease (PVD) patients, compared to 20 healthy matched controls. The aim of this study was to define the role of WBCs in PVD. The results confirm the WBC count was significantly increased in PVD patients. Surprisingly, however, the only rheological WBC variable which showed a significant variation during the ischaemic pain caused by treadmill exercise was the filterability of mononuclear leukocytes. This would seem to identify disturbances in mononuclear filter-ability, associated with ischaemic pain resulting from claudication, as a functional sign of PVD.
