Popis: | Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) dosing protocols for deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis in critically ill patients (CIPs) are not based on pharmacologic studies in these patients. Antithrombotic LMWH activity correlates with peak anti-activated factor × (aFXa) levels (4 hours post injection) of 0.1 to 0.2 IU/ml. The hypothesis of this study is that most CIPs do not achieve therapeutic levels for prevention of DVT. |
