However, the choice of which LMWH to use depends on the duration and frequency of the dialysis sessions. For patients who are allergic to heparin or have heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, alternative anticoagulants--the direct thrombin inhibitors and heparinoids--are now available. These agents ...

We wanted to describe what Lemierre's syndrome is and what risk factors may be involved, and to understand the roles, if any, of antibiotics and anticoagulants in the treatment of this syndrome.We performed a review of the pertinent literature regarding Lemierre's syndrome, as well as a revie...
Pulmonary fibrosis, sometimes known as “scarring of the lung”, is the name given to a group of chronic lung diseases. Read on to discover what exactly pulmonary fibrosis is, its symptoms and the treatment options available for this chronic lung disease. There are various different causes of ...
Anticoagulant and antithrombotic drugs can increase the risk of spinal hematoma after neuraxial anesthesia, and better understanding of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anticoagulants has led to greater appreciation for withholding anticoagulation before and after neuraxial anesthesia. A number of ...
(including lower-limb paralysis). Anticoagulant and antithrombotic drugs can increase the risk of spinal hematoma after neuraxial anesthesia, and better understanding of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anticoagulants has led to greater appreciation for withholding anticoagulation before and after ...
Anticoagulants are substances that prevent blood from clotting. An ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)anticoagulant, therefore, uses this type of acid to stop the clotting process. The EDTA anticoagulant is often used in laboratory diagnostic tests, such as the complete blood count (CBC), because...
These barriers continue to limit the use of anticoagulation therapy, a potentially beneficial treatment. Due to these limitations it is unclear what impact the increased range of oral anticoagulants and the alternation to the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QoF) will have on the incentive to primary...
Lupus antibodies are substances that interfere with the process of coagulation, potentially causing problems with the blood...
