Heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a life‐threatening prothrombotic, immune‐
mediated complication of unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparin therapy …

Background Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a severe antibody-mediated
reaction leading to transient prothrombosis. However, its incidence in patients on …

Objectives To characterize the longitudinal hemostatic profile during adult ECMO using point-
of-care tests (POCT) for coagulation and to compare these parameters to standard …

Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a rescue therapy for patients with
severe lung failure. Major complications caused by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation …

The goal of the current study is to enhance the hemocompatibility of polyethersulfone (PES)
membranes using heparin immobilization. Heparin was immobilized covalently and via …

thrombocytopenia including heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). The purpose of this …

Hemodialysis (HD) is a life-sustaining extracorporeal blood purifying treatment for end-stage
renal disease (ESRD) patients. However, this membrane-based therapy is associated with …

Background: In patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and who
develop heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, there is no clear evidence to support changing …

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a rare but life-threatening side effect of heparin
therapy. It is a demanding therapeutic challenge in patients undergoing left ventricular assist …

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a prothrombotic, immune-mediated complication
