IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.

The use of enoxaparin as a replacement drug to standard heparin, for anticoagulation during extracorporeal circulation, in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, is still very limited. Enoxaparin significantly reduces thrombin formation and activity during cardiopulmonary bypass. The prolonged circulating rate, slow elimination rate and non-total reversion of enoxaparin by protamine can induce important postoperative bleeding. We are describing the first case of cardiac transplantation where enoxaparin was used as a replacement drug to standard heparin. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract:	The use of enoxaparin as a replacement drug to standard heparin, for anticoagulation during extracorporeal circulation, in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, is still very limited. Enoxaparin significantly reduces thrombin formation and activity during cardiopulmonary bypass. The prolonged circulating rate, slow elimination rate and non-total reversion of enoxaparin by protamine can induce important postoperative bleeding. We are describing the first case of cardiac transplantation where enoxaparin was used as a replacement drug to standard heparin. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
