No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators study is the first step (a pilot study) in determining whether the manufacturer's recommended dose of a blood thinner called enoxaparin, in adults who are patients in an intensive care unit and have severely reduced kidney function (less than or equal to approximately 30% of their normal function) is safe with respect to the adverse effect of bleeding.

The investigators hypothesis is that studying these patients, going forward in time, without interfering with their care, to eventually determine if this blood thinner is safe at reduced doses, is feasible.
