Abstract

The paper is concerned with the efficacy of plasmapheresis with regard to red blood values in CRF patients on hemodialysis therapy. The probable mechanisms of this positive effect are discussed. Correlation between a degree of expression of the DIC-syndrome and anemia severity is demonstrated. An original method for reducing loss of blood in the dialyzer has been proposed.
