LMW Heparin: New Thromboembolic Applications?

JG Adams

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Previous studies suggest that low-molecular-weight (LMW) heparin is safe and effective for treating proximal deep venous thrombosis. However, these studies largely excluded patients with symptoms of pulmonary embolism (PE) and some patients with a history of venous thromboembolism because they were believed to have more serious thromboembolic disease. Two new studies extend the findings to the full …
