Why the study?
Are coagulation and fibrinolysis factors elevated in dialysis patients and associated with ischemic heart disease?
Are coagulation and fibrinolysis factors elevated in dialysis patients and associated with ischemic heart disease?
Factor VII and fibrinogen are elevated in dialysis patients, particularly those on CAPD, and may serve as risk factors for the development of ischemic heart disease.
Elevated coagulation markers in dialysis patients should not yet alter management; leaves open their role as predictors of ischemic heart disease.
