DOI: 10.1002/jmv.26918
Abstract: Here we analyze hospitalized andintensive care unit coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) patient outcomes from the international VIRUS registry (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04323787). We find that COVID‐19 patients administered unfractionated heparin but not enoxaparin have a higher mortality‐rate (390… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/micr.30895
Abstract: Digital replants and revascularization (DRV) have been performed since the 1960s but there are no recognized standard peri‐operative anticoagulation practices. A narrative systematic review of the clinical effectiveness and safety of therapeutic peri‐operative unfractionated heparin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2019.02.025
Abstract: BACKGROUND Critically ill neonates with inflammation secondary to SIRS or sepsis often develop an acquired pro-thrombotic state. Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is commonly prescribed in this population, but these subjects often remain sub-therapeutic or require very… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2019.10.019
Abstract: Current guidelines recommend performing laboratory tests aimed at monitoring unfractionated heparin (UFH) treatments within a delay not exceeding 1 to 2 h(s) after sampling when blood is collected into citrated tubes. As such a short delay… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/s-0041-1735225
Abstract: BACKGROUND Unfractionated heparin infusions are commonly used in microvascular surgery to prevent microvascular thrombosis. Previously, fixed-dose heparin infusions were believed to provide sufficient venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis; however, we now know that this practice is… read more here.
