We are currently trying to standardise the assessment of haemodialysis extracorporeal blood circuits and filters when evaluating the correct dose of LMWH (fragmin) for haemodialysis patients. I am looking for a standardised assessment tool to score the level of clot formation in the above mentioned circuit and filter when haemodialysis is complete.
Does anyone know of an existing assessment tool?
Many thanks,
