Control Trial of Intermittent Hemodialysis With Regional Citrate VS Priming Heparin With Predilution in Patients at Risk of Bleeding

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Hemodialysis
Registration Number
NCT03562754
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The study investigators hypothesize that intermittent hemodialysis with regional citrate anticoagulation (Prometheus system/Frésénius) is more efficient than reduced systemic heparin anticoagulation in patients at bleeding risk hospitalized in nephrology intensive care unit
