    Summary · context
    Since uremic patients experience minor bleeding episodes that might be self-managed at home (particularly epistaxis, gingival bleeding, and menorrhagia), we carried out a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study in nine uremics to evaluate whether the prolonged bleeding times could be shorte…
