A randomized controlled trial of haemoglobin normalization with epoetin alfa in pre-dialysis and dialysis patientsHans Furuland
Internal Medicine, Department of Medical Sciences, University Hospital, Entrance 40, S 751 85 Uppsala, Sweden
Nephrol Dial Transplant 18:353-61. 2003..Partial correction of renal anaemia with erythropoietin improves quality of life (QoL). We aimed to examine if normalization of haemoglobin with epoetin alfa in pre-dialysis and dialysis patients further improves QoL and is safe...
Reduced hemodialysis adequacy after hemoglobin normalization with epoetinHans Furuland
Department of Medical Sciences, University Hospital, Uppsala Sweden
J Nephrol 18:80-5. 2005..Increased hemoglobin (Hb) levels and higher blood viscosity could reduce hemodialyzer clearance. We examined hemodialysis (HD) adequacy after treatment with epoetin alfa aimed at normalizing Hb levels...
Hemorheological and hemodynamic changes in predialysis patients after normalization of hemoglobin with epoetin-alphaHans Furuland
Department of Medical Sciences, University Hospital, Uppsala, Sweden
Scand J Urol Nephrol 39:399-404. 2005..An increase in hemoglobin level is followed by decreases in cardiac output and left ventricular mass. We examined how normalization of hemoglobin in predialysis patients affects both hemorheological and hemodynamic variables...
Heart rate variability is decreased in chronic kidney disease but may improve with hemoglobin normalizationHans Furuland
Department of Medical Sciences, University Hospital, Uppsala, Sweden
J Nephrol 21:45-52. 2008..A reduction in HRV is associated with anemia. HRV was therefore measured in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) after hemoglobin normalization...
Effect of switching from subcutaneous to intravenous administration of epoetin-alpha in haemodialysis patients: results from a Swedish multicentre surveyTorbjörn Linde
Department of Internal Medicine, University Hospital, Uppsala, Sweden
Scand J Urol Nephrol 39:329-33. 2005..c. route. We evaluated the possible effect of this change in the route of administration on haemoglobin (Hb) levels and epoetin-alpha requirements...
