Key result
Hemodialysis without anticoagulants was well tolerated and safe in 6 uremic patients with high bleeding risk, with no devices lost to clotting or rupture across 20 sessions.

Supports feasibility of anticoagulant-free hemodialysis in high-bleeding-risk uremia; leaves open confirmation in larger prospective trials before practice change.
Observational (n=6)
Is hemodialysis without anticoagulants safe and feasible in uremic patients with high bleeding risk?
Hemodialysis without heparin is feasible and safe in critically ill uremic patients with a high bleeding risk.
Casati et al. (1982) conducted an observational in Uremia with high bleeding risk (n=6). Hemodialysis without anticoagulants vs. Heparin hemodialysis was evaluated on Tolerability, intrinsic clotting system alterations, and device loss. Hemodialysis without anticoagulants was well tolerated and safe in 6 uremic patients with high bleeding risk, with no devices lost to clotting or rupture across 20 sessions.
