Effect of Desmopressin on Platelet Function in CKD Patients on Antiplatelet Drug

Prolonged Collagen/Epinephrine - closure time (CEPI-CT) indicates platelet dysfunction in CKD patients taking antiplatelet agent. The synthetic vasopressin derivative, Desmopressin (DDAVP) shortens the prolonged bleeding time and improves platelet dysfunction measured by in vitro closure time: CEPI-CT in uremic patients. Desmopressin also antagonizes the in vitro platelet dysfunction induced by GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors, clopidogrel and aspirin. The investigators designed a prospective study to evaluate the effect of desmopressin on platelet function, as measured by in vitro collagen/epinephrine - closure time, in uremic patients who were taking antiplatelet drugs.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • adult uremic patients with one or more antiplatelet medication,
  • prolonged collagen/epinephrine (CEPI) closure time,
  • need for emergent hemodialysis and
  • subsequent catheter insertion

Exclusion criteria

  • acute coronary syndrome,
  • hemophilia, and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus,
  • allergy against desmopressin

Treatment and study plan

Desmopressin administration

Drug

Primary outcomes

  1. collagen-epinephrine closure time

    Time frame: 1 hour

    In vitro closure time (CT), measured using a platelet function analyzer (PFA)-100, is a relatively new tool for investigation of primary hemostasis. This system has been shown to be efficacious in evaluating abnormalities of primary hemostasis.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Bleeding after procedure

    Time frame: 1-4 hr after procedure

    we observe incidence of bleeding complication after procedure
