Antithrombotic therapy for venous thromboembolic disease.

TL;DR: It is shown that patients with symptomatic proximal DVT may benefit from fitted compression stockings for at least 3 months to reduce the incidence of the postthrombotic syndrome, and patients with VTE who receive adequate anticoagulation generally do not die of recurrent disease.

The Weight-based Heparin Dosing Nomogram Compared with a Standard Care Nomogram

TL;DR: This study compares the performance of the weight-based heparin nomogram with another nomogram reflecting a prevalent standard of practice, using the most generalizable APTT test system in North America, and describes a Weight-based Heparin Nomogram, the first to describe a weight- based hepar in nomogram, and the first nomogram study to have easily generalizable results.

A prospective study of the value of monitoring heparin treatment with the activated partial thromboplastin time.

TL;DR: Two hundred and thirty-four patients treated with continuous intravenous infusions of heparin were studied prospectively to seek a relation between the activated partial thromboplastin tim...

Management of heparin therapy: Controlled prospective trial.

TL;DR: Administration of heparin by continuous infusion appears safer than intermittent injection with or without laboratory control and is no less effective for prevention of thromboembolism.

Pulmonary embolism. A clinical and pathologic study with emphasis on the effect of prophylactic therapy with anticoagulants.

TL;DR: The results of prophylactic therapy with anticoagulants, utilizing the coumarin drugs for long term control, for the patients in this series who had a history of one diagnosed pulmonary embolus prior to therapy were strikingly beneficial, and the incidence of subsequent emboli was reduced.
