Nürnberg, Germany. Haas performed the first human

Scientific work
Haas performed the first human hemodialysis in the history of medicine in 1924 in the town of
Giessen, Germany. The procedure lasted only 15 minutes, and hirudin served as the
anticoagulant. Haas was able to develop a dialyzer consisting of U-shaped collodion tubes immersed in a dialysate bath placed in a glass cylinder. He performed several
hemodialysis procedures in uremics between 1924 and 1928, and reported for the first time the clinical results obtained. In 1928, Haas introduced
heparin into the
dialysis procedure. Because of lack of support by the medical community, Haas was forced to discontinue his promising work.
