Permalinkexcellent literature review of use of low molecular weight heparin and unfractionated heparin. I am more aware now about the use of tinzaparin and I am looking forward to the results of TRIVET study. Enoxaprin is frequently used at our institution for ESRD patient population at reduced dosages, however, there is clearly not enough data on the regimen to be used in such patients. Risk of life threatening bleeading (intracranial bleeding) needs to be weighed against the risk of deadly PE's. These are very difficult decisions to make for both patients and clinicians.

PermalinkVery nice lecture! There might be one more point you might wish to comment, and it really trouble us in every day practice regarding ESRD patients under dialysis. Increased risk of calciphylaxis due to VKA use. What alternatives do we have? for example when treating a patient under dialysis who also suffers from AF. Thanks again for the presentation!
