    Abstract:
    The present paper aimed to assess the influence of EPO-therapy on the requirement of blood transfusion in haemodialysed patients with end-stage renal failure. As shown in this paper, introduction of r-HuEPO into the therapy of uraemic anaemia almost completely eliminated the request for blood transfusion in these patients. EPO therapy did not influence significantly to the serum creatinine concentration and mean arterial blood pressure in these patients.
