Objectives: To investigate the role of thromboelastography parameters (R, K, Angle, MA) in monitoring anticoagulation in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Subjects: Two hundred stable MHD patients. Methods: An observational study. Primary outcome: Relationship between thromboelastography parameter R Value and coagulation of hemodialysis circuit and dialyzer. Secondary outcome: Relationship between thromboelastography parameters (K Value, Angle and MA) and coagulation of hemodialysis circuit and dialyzer.
