Prospective Study on the Role of Intravenous Unfractionated Heparin Following Digital Replantation and Revascularization
July 25, 2023 updated by: Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM)
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of therapeutic dose intravenous heparin at improving replantation/revascularization success and its indications (if any) in participants who have suffered traumatic digital amputation.
Digital replantation/revascularization success will be assessed in participants who receive continuous intravenous drip of thromboprophylactic heparin at a therapeutic dose (i.e.
modifies INR to the desired range) contrasted to those who do not receive therapeutic dose heparin (i.e.
does not modify INR to the desired range).
In the study, replantation/revascularization success is defined as a clearly viable digit at the time of discharge.
Secondary objectives include assessing postoperative complications associated with heparin use, such as bleeding, hematoma or heparin induced thrombocytopenia.
The investigators would also assess the impact of categorical variables such as smoking status, mechanism of injury and comorbidities, on digital survival.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intravenous unfractionated heparin
Administration of intravenous unfractionated heparin according to the Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) deep vein thrombosis (DVT) protocol for 5 days after vascular anastomosis.
A bolus will be administered intraoperatively based on the patient's weight.
Dosages will be adjusted according to the activated partial thromboplastin time (aim for an APTT of 50-70), which will be measured 6 hours after the start of the protocol and after every dosage adjustment or every morning at 6 a.m. if no adjustments were made in the last 6 hours.
|
See experimental arm description for intervention description.
|
Sham Comparator: Control
No administration of intravenous unfractionated heparin. These patients receive 5000 IU BID of heparin subcutaneously, as a standard post-operative protocol for all in-patients. The control group receives sham bolus intraoperatively of normal saline and a post-operative normal saline infusion at a fixed dose through an infusion pump to mimic IV heparin infusion. |
