NCT00756145

Brief Summary

Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is injected in the dialysis circuit at the start of the session. In the present study we compare 3 different methods of injection of LMWH: parameters of dialysis efficiency and clotting are measured. The study lasts 3 sessions for each patient.
