Study Summary

During hemodialysis treatments, patients receive heparin to prevent clotting. The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if the amount of heparin administered during a patient's hemodialysis can be individualized using an equation for heparin dose adjustment.

Primary Outcome

The objective is to titrate each patient's heparin dose to the level that achieves adequate anticoagulation for that patient as assessed by the change in blood compartment volume of the dialyzer from pre- to post-dialysis. The strategy that will be used is the Robbins-Monro stochastic approximation algorithm.
