Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is the most widely used intravenous (IV) anticoagulant for treating and preventing thromboembolic disease (e.g., blood clots ). UFH must be closely monitored and adjusted in the hospital. There are two assays used to monitor UFH: 1) the activated partial thromboplastin time (PTT) and 2) the chromogenic anti-factor Xa assay (anti-Xa). This study aims to compare PTT and anti-Xa methods for monitoring UFH in a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to determine which helps patients reach a therapeutic anticoagulation range faster.
