Safer dialysis for bleeding risk patients: study tests local vs. Whole-Body blood thinners

NCT ID NCT03562754

Summary

This study tested two different ways to prevent blood clotting during dialysis for patients in intensive care who are at high risk of bleeding. It compared a method that thins blood only in the dialysis machine (regional citrate) to a low-dose method that thins blood throughout the whole body (heparin). The goal was to see which method is safer and more effective for these vulnerable patients.
