The effects of medium cut-off and high-flux membranes on activated clotting time of patients on hemodialysis

The effects of medium cut-off and high-flux membranes on activated clotting time of patients on hemodialysis

IntroductionThe interaction between blood and dialysis membrane increases the risk of clot formation. Membrane properties can interfere with coagulation activation during dialysis. Heparin is usually used to ensure anticoagulation, which can be monitored by the Activated Clotting Time (ACT) test. Th...
