Abstract

Japan Erythropoietin Treatment (JET) Study was carred out to evaluate the relationship between maintenance of Hb levels and patient prognoses after the first application of epoetin beta formulation (Epogin) to new hemodialysis patients. Using data collected up until June 2007, we examined the baseline characteristics of patients on the first day of hemodialysis and the status of anemia treatment 3 months later. As a result, it was noted that many patients demonstrated some cardiovascular histories or complications and the mean Hb level at introduction to hemodialysis was relatively low compared to that in Europe or the US.
