Thrombocytopenia in the Setting of Hemodialysis Using Biocompatible Membranes

Figure 1

Demonstration of chronological platelet levels measured in this patient. Dashed arrows indicate administration of hemodialysis using either Optiflux 200 or 18NR polysulfone membrane dialyzers (Fresenius). Solid arrows indicate administration of hemodialysis using AM100 dialyzer with alkyl ether polymer-grafted cellulose membrane.
