- Abstract
Patients on hemodialysis (HD) have an increased risk of thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and vascular access thrombosis. The study hypothesis is that a single session of dialysis leads to platelet, endothelial and coagulation activation. Our aim is to determine the effect of a single HD session on prothrombotic vascular biomarkers before and after a single session of hemodialysis.
