Abstract
In ten patients treated by maintenance hemodialysis due to end-stage renal failure evaluation of dialysis efficiency was performed during the treatment with heparin alone as well as in the course of prostacyclin -heparin infusion. Statistically significant lower level of urea at the end of dialysis and significantly higher urea clearance were found during hemodialysis with prostacyclin -heparin infusion in comparison with infusion of heparin alone.
