Abstract
The use of recombinant human erythropoietin (r-HuEPO) corrects the anemia of chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients and improves their quality of life. The role of r-HuEPO in the genesis of graft thrombosis is controversial. A retrospective study was conducted of 46 stable chronic HD patients receiving r-HuEPO. It showed an increase in graft thrombosis in those who received the drug.Entities:
