Abstract

The aim of the study was to follow effects of multiple dialyzer reuse on some coagulation parameters. In a random group of 10 patients undergoing intermittent hemodialysis treatment, platelet coagulant, fibrinogen, BTG and PF4 concentrations were determined after 1st dialyzer usage and after 2 consecutive dialysis sessions after which the dialyzer was reused by manual method with 1% Dialyne solution. An increase in fibrinogen concentration after 240 min of HD procedure was shown when dialyzer was used for 1st and 3rd time. BTG activity increased after 240 min of HI procedure when the dialyzer was used for 3rd time. There was a fall in platelet count after 30 min of HD during the 1st and the 3rd dialyzer use. The fall in platelet count lasted all dialysis session when dialyser was used for 3rd time. The PF4 activity was decreased after 30 min of HD session after the 1st and the 2nd dialyzer use.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
