BACKGROUND: Heparin inhibits prothrombotic tissue factor (TF) and releases its inhibitor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), from the endothelium, but repeated administration of heparin depletes vascular stores of TFPI. We studied the anticoagulant effects of unfractionated heparin (UFH) vs low-molecular-weight enoxaparin-used for thrice-weekly maintenance haemodialysis (HD)-on plasma levels of total TF and TFPI and on those of an activated coagulation marker prothrombin fragment 1+2 (PF 1+2). METHODS: Twenty-five patients dialysed using a single injection of enoxaparin (at a mean dose of 0.68 mg/kg) were randomly assigned to either receive UFH administered as a mean bolus of 42.1 IU/kg and continuous infusion of 57.8 IU/kg (n=12) or to be maintained on enoxaparin (n=13), and were followed prospectively for 12 weeks. Plasma immunoreactive TF, TFPI and PF 1+2 were measured at the start and after 10 and 180 min of HD, and compared with values in 15 healthy controls. RESULTS: Pre-dialysis TF, TFPI and PF 1+2 were higher than normal (all P<0.0001). TF and PF 1+2 did not change, while TFPI levels, compared with baseline, increased at each interval in enoxaparin-anticoagulated HD patients (all P<0.0001). TFPI increments correlated inversely with pre-dialysis TFPI (both P<0.0007). In patients switched to UFH, TF levels remained unchanged compared with pre-randomization values, TFPI increased at each interval of HD sessions (all P<0.035) and PF 1+2 increased pre-dialysis (P=0.015). The over-dialysis effects of UFH resembled those of enoxaparin. In contrast, baseline TFPI and its 10-min rise correlated inversely with the UFH loading dose (both P<0.040). Pre-dialysis PF 1+2 was inversely associated with TFPI increments (both P<0.034), and directly with pre-dialysis TFPI (P=0.018) and the UFH loading dose (P=0.045). CONCLUSIONS: Depletion of heparin-releasable stores of TFPI is an untoward effect of repeated anticoagulation during maintenance HD therapy. The traditional UFH regimen is more prothrombotic than single enoxaparin injections, with high loading doses of UFH being involved in TFPI exhaustion and subsequent hypercoagulability.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) is supposed to be advantageous compared to unfractionated heparin for chronic hemodialysis (HD) with respect to lipid and bone metabolism, polymorphonuclear cell stimulation, induction of antibody-mediated thrombocytopenia, and aldosterone suppression. Due to longer biological half-life, LMWH offers the possibility of single bolus administration. METHODS: To assess safety and efficacy of single bolus anticoagulation with enoxaparin for chronic HD, 781 stable HD patients from 79 German dialysis centers (mean age 62 years; 31% ESRD due to diabetes mellitus) were monitored by clinical and laboratory parameters for 32 weeks. Additionally, in a single dialysis center, 22 chronic HD patients were investigated by molecular markers of coagulation during chronic HD under conditions of single bolus or continuous anticoagulation regimens. Anti-Xa activity and the thrombin- antithrombin-III complex (TAT) were determined before the enoxaparin bolus, after 15 min, 2 h, and at the end of HD in venous and arterial blood lines. RESULTS: Chronic HD was performed in 24,117 HD treatments with enoxaparin at a median dose of 70.1 IU/kg (5,000 IU median total dose) for single bolus anticoagulation. In 83.0% of HD treatments, enoxaparin was given as single bolus. In 98.3% of patients no adverse event was reported. No drug-related severe adverse event occurred. Significant clotting problems were observed in only 0.3% of HD treatments with single bolus anticoagulation. As assessed in 257 HD treatments, essentially identical anti-Xa levels were detected at the end of HD with single bolus (50 IU/kg) or continuous (mean total dose 43 IU/kg) anticoagulation regimens. Bolus anticoagulation resulted in higher TAT generation at the end of HD. However, this was not associated with increased macroscopic clot formation. CONCLUSION: Single bolus anticoagulation with enoxaparin was safe and effective for chronic HD. For a duration of 4 h HD, a median dose of 70 IU/kg can be recommended for regular use, which is in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions for use of enoxaparin recommending a range of 50-100 IU/kg.  相似文献

AIM: The aim of our study was to investigate the use of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-Hirudin (PEG-H) as an anticoagulant in hemodialysis including drug monitoring with the Ecarin Clotting Time (ECT) in whole blood and to compare this regimen with standard anticoagulant unfractionated heparin (UFH) for influence on hemostatic parameters and clot frequency of the extracorporeal system. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The application of PEG-H as an anticoagulant in patients on chronic HD was studied in 20 patients (12 males, 8 females) from a single center in an exploratory, open-label, controlled, single-blind, dose-finding study. The patients were divided in 2 groups with 10 patients each (Group I and II); both received 3 dialyses with UFH, thereafter Group I received 5 dialyses with PEG-H and Group II 10 dialyses with PEG-H. Starting dose of PEG-H in the first dialysis was a bolus of 0.08 mg/kg bwt, the mean dose of the following HD was 0.041 mg/kg bwt (range 0.026 0.065 mg/kg bwt). PEG-H was applied as an intravenous bolus-dose followed by a 0.9% saline as a placebo-infusion. HD was performed regularly 3 times a week. All dialysis treatments were performed exclusively with a hollow fiber dialyzer type. Fibrinogen, antithrombin III, prothrombin fragments, thrombin-antithrombin and soluble fibrin were measured with commercial tests. ECT was determined in a mechanical coagulometer. A semiquantitative score was given for the presence of clots in the extracorporeal system after each dialysis. RESULTS: PEG-H was effectively used as an anticoagulant in 150 chronic dialysis treatments using ECT as a simple monitoring method. The optimal whole blood concentration for PEG-H is 600-1000 ng/ml. Clotting in the whole extracorporeal system was decreased by 45% (p = 0.059) with PEG-H anticoagulated HD in comparison to UFH. Fibrinogen, prothrombin fragments (F1+2-fragments) and thrombin-antithrombin-complex showed no significant change in comparison with UFH, antithrombin III (AT III) increased to normal concentrations. Highly sensitive coagulation markers such as a soluble fibrin showed a significant decrease (p < 0.001) before and after HD with PEG-H compared with UFH. CONCLUSION: PEG-H can be used effectively as an alternative anticoagulant in patients on chronic HD using ECT as a simple drug monitoring method. The lower frequency of clots in the extracorporeal system, the stronger and more efficient inhibition of coagulation during HD as indicated by soluble fibrin, may have a positive influence on the disturbed blood coagulation of these patients.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Measurements of activated coagulation time do not correlate with plasma concentration of heparin. This study investigated the effects of a patient-specific method to manage anticoagulation and its reversal in pediatric patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS: Infants and children were randomly assigned to receive either a standard dose of heparin (300 IU/kg; group C, n = 13) or an individualized dose, calculated by an in vitro heparin dose-response test (group HC, n = 13). Protamine dose was based on a 1 mg/l mg ratio of total administered heparin for patients in group C and of the residual heparin concentration in group HC. RESULTS: Administered heparin was significantly higher and total protamine dose was significantly reduced in the HC group (both p < or = 0.001). There was less thrombin generation (p = 0.02) and fibrinolysis (p = 0.05) in group HC. Blood loss and requirement for transfusion of blood and fresh frozen plasma were also lower in group HC (all p < or =0.05). CONCLUSIONS: An individualized management of anticoagulation and its reversal results in less activation of the coagulation cascade, less fibrinolysis, and reduced blood loss and need for transfusions. Further studies are warranted to better define the clinical impact of these findings.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: In haemodialysis (HD) patients, low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle distribution is characterized by a higher proportion of more atherogenic dense LDL. Though clinical studies showed favourable effects of low molecular weight (LMW) heparin compared to standard heparin on triglycerides (TG) and cholesterol (CH) in HD patients with hypertriglyceridaemia, it is not known if LMW heparin influences LDL subfraction pattern. Thus, the aim of this pilot study was to investigate if a switch to LMW heparin influences LDL subfractions and apolipoproteins. METHODS: Ten outpatients with fasting TG >230 mg/dl in the chronic HD programme on heparin for anticoagulation (AC) were switched to dalteparin (80 IU/kg body weight as a bolus). Blood samples were drawn for CH, TG, LDL-CH, HDL-CH, apolipoproteins (apo), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate density lipoproteins (IDL), and LDL subclasses at the beginning and after 12 months of therapy. Lipoproteins were isolated by preparative ultracentrifugation. Total LDL were fractionated into six density classes by equilibrium density gradient ultracentrifugation [(density in kg/l): LDL-1 1.019-1.031, LDL-2 1.031-1.034, LDL-3 1.034-1.037, LDL-4 1.037-1.040, LDL-5 1.040-1.044, LDL-6 1.045-1.063]. CH and TG were determined enzymatically, apolipoproteins by turbidimetry. RESULTS: In eight patients suitable for evaluation cholesterol decreased from 241 to 202 (P<0.05) and TG from 557 to 278 mg/dl (P<0.01), whereas LDL-CH and HDL-CH did not change significantly. A 28.2% decrease of VLDL (P<0.01) and a 19.3% decrease of IDL (P<0.05) paralleled by a significant drop of apoB were observed. Buoyant LDL subclasses increased (LDL-2, +34.3% and LDL-3, +20.3%) whereas dense LDL (LDL-5, -13.4% and LDL-6, -33.1%) decreased (P<0.05 for LDL-6). The ratio of buoyant LDL to dense LDL increased from 0.46+/-0.28 to 0.72+/-0.33 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: In hypertriglyceridaemic HD patients, dalteparin improved metabolism of TG-rich lipoproteins, increased buoyant LDL and decreased potentially atherogenic dense LDL. Preservation of lipoprotein lipase by LMW heparin may be a possible mechanism to explain our findings.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a multi-functional cytokine that presents as a mediator of the heparin's pleiotropic action. In this cross-over study, we compared the effects of enoxaparin and unfractionated heparin (UFH) used as anticoagulants during haemodialysis (HD) on plasma TGF-beta1 levels and some platelet activation markers: platelet-derived growth factor-AB (PDGF-AB), beta-thromboglobulin (beta-TG) and platelet factor-4 (PF-4). METHODS: Plasma immunoreactive markers (in 22 chronically HD patients) were quantified at the start, at 10 and 180 min of HD session. Enoxaparin was administered as a single dose of 0.67 +/- 0.14 mg/kg at the onset of HD, while UFH was given as a bolus of 1500 (500-3500) IU followed by an infusion of 2750 (1500-6500) IU. The time of evaluation for each heparin was 3 months. RESULTS: Pre-dialysis, TGF-beta1 levels tended to be lower in patients anticoagulated with enoxaparin compared with UFH [6.9 (3.3-21.9) ng/ml vs 8.4 (3.8-30.2) ng/ml, respectively; P = 0.05]. Overdialysis, TGF-beta1 levels showed a significant 44.8% increase to 10.0 (2.9-28.0) ng/ml after 10 min (P = 0.002) and to 9.32 (5.3-23.7) ng/ml after 180 min (P = 0.016) of enoxaparin-anticoagulated HD and remained stable during UFH administration [9.4 (3.9-25.3) ng/ml after 10 min, 8.1 (4.1-21.9) ng/ml after 180 min; P = 0.385]. The 35% increase in plasma TGF-beta1 after 180 min of HD positively correlated with the enoxaparin dose/kg (r = 0.553, P = 0.008) and, interestingly, negatively with the baseline level of the cytokine (r = -0.544, P = 0.009). Despite a positive correlation between TGF-beta1 and PDGF-AB during HD, there were no associations between TGF-beta1 and beta-TG or PF-4 regardless of the type of anticoagulation. CONCLUSION: Enoxaparin, compared with UFH, induces a rapid overdialytic but not sustained increase in plasma TGF-beta1 levels. The effect is closely dose-dependent and may reflect systemic activation of this multi-potential cytokine.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The use of postoperative anticoagulation is not uncommon for patients undergoing vascular procedures, whether for adjunctive therapy to the surgical procedure or for resumption of preoperative anticoagulation. We investigated whether low-molecular-weight heparin, specifically enoxaparin, was an effective replacement for intravenous heparin during the postoperative period until achievement of a therapeutic international normalized ratio, together with the impact on postoperative length of stay. METHODS: We retrospectively examined 330 patients who received either traditional intravenous unfractionated heparin with adjusted-dose warfarin daily (n = 169) or subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin, specifically enoxaparin 1 mg/kg every 12 hours, with adjusted-dose warfarin daily (n = 161). Safety was defined as incidence of bleeding, hematoma, stroke, expiration, thrombocytopenia, return to surgery for graft thrombosis or hematoma, and readmission within 30 days for hematoma or thrombosis. RESULTS: For all procedures, regardless of type of anticoagulation treatment, there was no difference in the incidence of postoperative complications, except for the increased incidence of return to surgery for graft thrombosis (P =.02), failing graft (P =.0004), and debridement (P =.01) in patients who received unfractionated heparin. For all procedures combined, the average postoperative length of stay was shortened by 2 days with use of low-molecular-weight heparin (P =.0001). CONCLUSIONS: In this series, use of enoxaparin appears to be safe and effective for vascular postoperative anticoagulation. At the same time, its use can significantly reduce the average postoperative length of stay for patients undergoing vascular procedures. Further prospective data are needed before this protocol can be accepted as an alternative for postoperative anticoagulation in this set of patients.  相似文献

Background: Dermatan sulphate (DS) is a selective thrombin inhibitor with antithrombotic properties and low bleeding potential. In preliminary studies it was reported to be effective for preventing clot formation in the haemodialysis circuit. Methods: Ten patients on maintenance haemodialysis for chronic renal failure underwent three consecutive investigation phases. In phase 1 (individual dose titration), repeated dialyses were preformed with increasing doses of DS until successful dialysis was obtained in two sessions at the same dose. In phase 2, individualized DS doses were validated by a randomized crossover comparison with the individual heparin dose of each patient. In phase 3, each patient underwent 24 consecutive dialyses with DS over 8 weeks. Successful dialysis was defined as completion of the procedure without visible clot formation in the bubble traps and lines or a greater than 20% decrease in dialyser capacity. Dialysis efficiency (decrease in serum urea and creatinine, Kt/V), APTT prolongation, bleeding time, and DS plasma concentrations were also assessed. Results: Phase 1: successful dialysis was achieved in nine patients with 4 mg/kg DS as a predialysis intravenous bolus followed by continuous infusion of 0.65 mg/kg/h. One patient required 5 mg/kg plus 1.3 mg/kg/h. Phase 2: no statistically significant differences were found between DS and heparin in any of the investigated variables. Residual dialyser capacity and dialysis efficiency indexes indicated equivalent efficacy. Phase 3: residual dialyser capacity and dialysis efficiency did not change with time. There was no accumulation of DS in plasma. No bleeding or thrombocytopenia were observed. Conclusions: The dose of DS can be individually titrated to suppress clot formation during haemodialysis as efficiently as with individualized heparin. Such an individualized DS regimen maintains its anticoagulant efficacy and is safe in prolonged use. Key words: anticoagulation; clinical trial; dermatan sulphate; haemodialysis; heparin   相似文献

低分子量肝素在血液透析中的应用   总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14  
为探讨低分子量肝素在血液透析中的抗凝作用,选择血液透析患者60例、1500例次,分成两组。一组透析中使用肝素抗凝,另一组使用低分子量肝素(CX)抗凝,分别测量凝血时间、凝血酶原时间、活化部分凝血活酶时间及血小板,进行对照研究。结果发现,CX比肝素能更有效地抗凝,又能减少出血倾向,透析器复用次数明显增加,活化部分凝血活酶时间降低(P<0.01)。表明低分子量肝素特别适用于有出血倾向者,可代替肝素在血液透析中应用。  相似文献

We present a regimen for anticoagulation in the immediate postoperative period after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation using low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) as an alternative to unfractionated heparin. Between May and September 2007, eight consecutive patients undergoing LVAD implantation for advanced heart failure received the LMWH nadroparin. Nadroparin was given twice daily to achieve anti-Factor Xa activity target peak levels of 0.4 +/- 0.1 U/mL. The antiplatelet therapy consisted of aspirin (100 mg/day) and dipyridamole (3 x 75 mg/day). One patient underwent heart transplantation, three patients died, and four patients continued to receive device support. The median duration of support was 78 days (range, 46 to 174). No major bleeding was observed; minor bleeding occurred in three patients. In two patients, pump thrombosis was suspected. There were two ischemic and no hemorrhagic strokes. The use of LMWH may provide a new anticoagulation treatment option in the immediate postoperative period after LVAD implantation.  相似文献
