==Common Indications==
==Background==
DVT, PE, AFIB, ACS
*Binds to and activates antithrombin which in turns inactivates factor Xa and thrombin
 
*Half-life is 30-150min
==Bleeding Risk Factors==
*Must give IV (not subq) for acute thromboembolic disease
# Surgery, trauma, or stroke within the previous 14 days.
*Safe in pregnancy
# History of peptic ulcer disease, GI bleeding or GU bleeding.
*Unpredictable anticoagulation effect
# Platelet count less than 150K
**Must monitor w/ PTT; therapeutic range is 1.5-2.5x normal value
# Age > 70 yrs.
# Hepatic failure, uremia, bleeding diathesis, brain metastases.
 
Draw extra blue top prior to starting if concerned about a hypercoaguable state (heparin will interfere with assays)


==Treatment ==
==Treatment ==
# Bolus - 150 u/kg for PE, and 80-100 u/kg for all other conditions.
#See:
# Infuse - 15-25 u/kg/hr (high risk --> 15-18 u/kg/hr; low risk --> 22-25 u/kg/hr)
##[[DVT]]
# Sliding scale - PTT in 60-80 range..
##[[PE]]
##PTT Bolus/Hold Adjust Heparin
##[[ACS]]
##<50 70 u/kg 0 Increase 200 u/hr
##50-59 0 0 Increase 100 u/hr
##60-80 0 0 No change
##81-99 0 0 Decrease 100u/hr
##>100 0 60min Decrease 200 u/hr
###If 1st PTT after loading dose is > 100 sec do NOT change the infusion rate unless evidence of bleeding
# The PTT should be checked 4-6 hrs after a new bolus or any change in the infusion dose.
# Other LABS to check include stool GUIAC qd and CBC (platelets) qd
 
Duration: DVT or PE --> 5 days of heparin (even if the INR is therapeutic earlier in hospital course)
