Post-procedural FPA elevation was associated with ischemic complications; hypothesis-generating for thrombin-targeted strategies in heparin-resistant cases.
Is heparin-resistant thrombin activity associated with acute ischemic complications in patients undergoing coronary interventions?
Heparin-resistant thrombin activity during coronary interventions is associated with an increased risk of acute ischemic complications, including intracoronary thrombus and non-Q-wave myocardial infarction.
Oltrona et al. (1996) studied this question.
