Suppression of platelet reactivity during dialysis by addition of a nitric oxide donor to the dialysis fluid

Abstract Background Dialysis membranes that release nitric oxide (NO) from their surface, mimicking one of the functions of endothelial cells, may suppress platelet reactivity during hemodialysis treatment. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the addition of a NO donor to the dialysi...
