October 16, 2017 updated by: Chun Pan, Southeast University, China

Evaluation of Anti-Xa Levels in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Low-molecular-weight Heparin for Thromboprophylaxis in China

Critically ill Patients are at high risk to develop deep venous thrombosis. However, despite receiving of a standard dose of Low-molecular-weight Heparin(LMWH), many patients still develop life-threatening embolism. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-Xa levels of different dosing regimens of LMWH in critically ill patients in China.
