Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Chronic kidney disease
N18.0
N00-N99
Intervention(s)
Patients will be randomized to undergo to 12 consecutive dialysis sessions in each arm:
A) Hemodialysis using 4.0 mEq/L acetate buffer dialisate and heparin dose 100 IU/Kg.
B) Hemodialysis using 2.4 mEq/L citrate buffer dialisate and heparin dose 70 IU/Kg.
There will be a wash-out period between the phases with standard prescription of dialysis for 6 sessions.
Primary Outcome(s)
Loss of the dialyzer before 12th use due to clotting of blood in the extracorporeal circuit or reduction of fiber bundle volume >20% of baseline.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Reduction of hemodialysis efficiency assessed by the urea Kt/V at 1st, 6th and 12th dialysis sessions of each phase.

Incidence of hypocalcemia or hypomagnesemia in each phase of the study.
