Effect of erythropoietin therapy and withdrawal on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in hemodialysis patients.

abstract：:In April 2006, Japan's health insurance system instituted a bundling policy that included recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) in outpatient hemodialysis therapy. To evaluate outcomes of this, we analyzed a prospective cohort of hemodialysis patients in the Japan Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study, in ...
