[Heparin dosage in chronic hemodialysis (author's transl)].

Over a period of 10 months hemodialyses in 20 patients with chronic renal failure were performed with a 40% lower heparin-dose. Blood coagulation was controlled from the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). There were no unfavourable side-effects, also the effectivity of the hemodialyses was not changed. However, we measured a significant increase in the hemoglobin-concentration and in the packed cell volume. Bleeding from the punctures was significantly shortened.

[Uremic tendencies for hemorrhage and hemodialysis].

By means of a simple heparin test which reflects the actual processes in the contact of the blood with heterogeneous surfaces we can securely regulate the heparinisation in each phase of the dialysis, which, as I tried to explain, brings considerable consequences for the clinic.

[Methodological and first clinical investigations using a new pancreatic function test].

The synthetic peptide N-benzoyl-L-tyrosyl-p-aminobenzoic acid was tested in vitro and in vivo for its chymotrypsin specificity. Comparative kinetic tests with bovine chymotrypsin and human pancreatic juice, as well as clearance tests with p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), made this peptide seem suitable for an indirect pancreatic-function test. A testing scheme was set up for clinical use which has yielded promising preliminary results. While in 31 out of 32 healthy subjects there were normal PABA excretion rates in the urine collected over six hours, the test correlated well in 15 out of 16 cases of definite pancreatic disorder. The percentage dose excretion of PABA in the urine collected over six hours gave good correlations with the one-hour amount of chymotrypsin in the pancreozymin-secretin-test and with the concentration of chymotrypsin in the feces. These preliminary results make this test appear an appropriate screening method for pancreatopathy.
