unfractionated heparin can cause HIT: aPTT prolonged

LMWH can also cause HIT: aPTT not used to monitor this (X a used)

enoxaparin: can this cause HIT?
how do we monitor this

danaparoid: what is this?

pls reply when u get time

[ArchivalUser]

is enoxaparin a LMWH and hence wecant use aPTT to monitir it

and is danaparoid monitored with Xa. its not heparin and like heparin.(heparanoid)

pls correct if wrong

[ArchivalUser]

yes correct, enoxaprin is a LMWH can cause HIT and monitered via antifactorx activity
danaparoid is not LMWH but heparenoid, used in cases of HIT as an alternative, also monitered using antifactor x activity
