Low-molecular-weight heparin in the treatment of patients with venous thromboembolism. The Columbus Investigators.
Low-molecular-weight heparin is known to be safe and effective for the initial treatment of patients with proximal deep-vein thrombosis. However, its application to pulmonary embolism or previous episodes of thromboembolism has not been studied. ⋯ Fixed-dose, subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin is as effective and safe as adjusted-dose, intravenous unfractionated heparin for the initial management of venous thromboembolism, regardless of whether the patient has pulmonary embolism or a history of venous thromboembolism.
