Abstract—The objective of this study is to analyze the prophylactic usage of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) along pregnancy and the correlation between their usage and month/week of pregnancy, in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, at Clinical Hospital in Tetovo. A retrospective study was undertaken during 01 January – 31 December 2012. Over of one year, the total number of patien...
The antifactor Xa activities of heparin fractions are widely used as an ex vivo index of their antithrombotic efficacy. Its clinical meaning, however, remains speculative. In the study reported, we measured the effects of standard heparin, a synthetic pentasaccharide heparin (antifactor Xa activity only), and a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) on factor Xa, factor Va, and thrombin generation...
As the risk factors for thrombosis are becoming better understood, so is the need for anticoagulation. The inherent difficulties with warfarin are such that a low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) is often the key therapeutic. However, there are several different species of LMWH available to the practitioner, which leads to the need for an objective guide. New agents are coming onto the marketpla...
Optimal dosing of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) therapy has not yet been established for patients with morbid obesity or renal insufficiency or for pregnant women. Monitoring of anti-Xa levels appears to be helpful in guiding LMWH dosing in all of these patient groups. Use of fondaparinux in these populations has yet to be defined. Cancer patients are at particular risk of venous thromboe...
Spinal epidural hematoma after epidural anesthesia in a patient receiving enoxaparin -A case report-
Spinal epidural hematoma is a rare but serious neurological complication of neuraxial anesthesia. Enoxaparin sodium is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for use in preventing deep venous thrombosis in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty. Hemorrhage is an uncommon but documented adverse reaction when using LMWH. We report a case of epidural hematoma after l...
BACKGROUND The objective of the paper is to describe our clinical experience with the use of low molecular weight heparin in children treated due to various orthopaedic conditions. MATERIAL AND METHODS We have studied the treatment outcomes of 35 patients aged 11 to 18 years who were hospitalized in the Department of Paediatric Orthopaedics and Department of Traumatology and Emergency Medicin...
Osteoporosis is a well-recognized complication of long-term heparin use. However, the mechanisms by which heparin can influence bone metabolism are unclear. We report here that unfractionated heparin stimulates the process of bone resorption and that the low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs), enoxaparin, fragmin, logiparin, and ardeparin produce significantly less calcium loss than unfractionat...
With the growing use of low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWH) for the treatment and prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE), it is important to provide an evidence-based comparison with unfractionated heparin (UFH) concerning rates of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Such comparisons are essential in clinical decision-making and cost-modeling. In this paper we review data regarding non...
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is caused by antibodies against a "self" protein-platelet factor 4-bound to heparin. We observed an overrepresentation of the female gender in 290 patients who developed HIT after cardiac or orthopedic surgery compared with the representation found in national databases (study 1). Therefore, we investigated gender imbalance in HIT by logistic regression an...
Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), a mixture of polysaccharide molecules, is derived from unfractionated heparin (UFH) by physical and/or chemical processes. Using subcutaneous injections of LMWH to treat patients with deep vein thrombosis has several major advantages over the use of conventional intravenous or subcutaneous UFH therapy. For instance, there is no requirement for laboratory mon...
