| pubmed-article:14698650 | pubmed:abstractText | Thrombosis is one of the most frequent adverse events after cardiac catheterization, which can be reduced by anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin (UFH) in both children and adults. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) might possibly offer advantages. Laboratory signs of thrombin generation during pediatric cardiac catheterization, with unfractionated heparin (UFH) bolus or subcutaneous LMWH for thrombosis prophylaxis, were determined in a first step to investigate the potential of LMWH for antithrombotic cover. | lld:pubmed |
