TY - JOUR T1 - Outpatient protocols for treatment of venous thromboembolism using low-molecular-weight heparin: To treat or not to treat at home AU - Harrison L Y1 - 1999/05/24 N1 - JO - Archives of Internal Medicine SP - 1140 EP - 1140 VL - 159 IS - 10 N2 - We did not exclude patients with chronic problems such as renal insufficiency, liver disease, malignancy, morbid obesity, pregnancy, or hypercoagulable states because the majority of these patients can be taught to identify signs and symptoms that should be of concern and can have regular blood testing done as an outpatient. Our approach is supported by the overall low rates of adverse events in the study. SN - 0003-9926 M3 - doi: UR - http://dx.doi.org/ ER -
