NCT00484822 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 206

Last updated 2010-02-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Often it is necessary to temporarily discontinue OAT when surgical or other invasive procedures are required. However, there is no consensus on the optimal management in these situations, and heparin bridging therapy is the current usual practice in these situations. No large randomized, controlled clinical trials have been yet performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) as bridging therapy.
