| Popis: | To determine the adequacy of initial anticoagulation by intravenous heparin for patients who have deep venous thrombosis (DVT), and the factors that influence delayed anticoagulation, independent, duplicate chart review of 63 consecutive patients who had venography-proven DVT was conducted. Adequate heparinization (AH) was defined as an activated partial thromboplastin time (PTT) of more than 1.5 times the normal laboratory control. The proportions of patients achieving AH within 24 hours and 48 hours of initial heparin bolus were 46% and 62%, respectively. Patients who weighed more were less likely to achieve AH (p |
