Quantification of extracorporeal fibrin deposits in haemodialysis with minimal and conventional heparinization.
The effects of minimal intermittent heparinization and of conventional heparinization on endogen fibrinogen concentration as well as on fibrin deposits were studied on 17 on patients hemodialysis. It was shown that the minimal intermittent heparinization did non reduce dialysis efficiency and that a total heparin dosage of 6,000 units is the lowest safe limit.
