pubmed:abstractText
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a well-known complication of heparin exposure and presents a clinical dilemma for patients undergoing percutaneous intervention (PI). Heparin cannot be used for thrombin inhibition and direct thrombin inhibitors offer an attractive alternative to heparin. We report our experience with lepirudin, a recombinant hirudin, used for PI in HIT patients.
