Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects over 10% of the global population and significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease as well as arising bleeding. There are alterations in hemostasis, which are multifactorial, involving complex interactions between coagulation, platelets, and the vessel wall. Hemostasis evaluation in CKD is critical for the optimal management of patients. However, conventional coagulation testing and renal function do not fully reflect the hemostatic alterations and do not adequately represent the risk of bleeding and/or thrombosis in patients with CKD. Global hemostatic assays, including thrombin and fibrin generation assays, provide a more wholesome assessment of the process, including the interaction between procoagulants, anticoagulants, platelets, and fibrinolysis. This review critically appraises published studies reporting the use of global coagulation assays to evaluate hemostasis in patients with CKD, as well as associated clinical outcomes.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis is a topic driven review journal that focuses on all issues relating to hemostatic and thrombotic disorders. As one of the premiere review journals in the field, Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis serves as a comprehensive forum for important advances in clinical and laboratory diagnosis and therapeutic interventions. The journal also publishes peer reviewed original research papers.
Seminars offers an informed perspective on today''s pivotal issues, including hemophilia A & B, thrombophilia, gene therapy, venous and arterial thrombosis, von Willebrand disease, vascular disorders and thromboembolic diseases. Attention is also given to the latest developments in pharmaceutical drugs along with treatment and current management techniques. The journal also frequently publishes sponsored supplements to further highlight emerging trends in the field.
