Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Medicine Research and Practice, 2021
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an adverse prothrombotic disorder caused by an immune response to complexes of platelet factor 4 and polyanions. The clinical relevance of HIT results from the wide use of heparin, which is the reason that the absolute number of patients affected by HIT is high.

Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia

open access: yesAnnual Review of Medicine, 1989
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an immune-mediated adverse drug effect that is characterized by platelet activation, hypercoagulability, and a resulting increased risk for thrombosis, both venous and arterial. This disorder is autoimmune-like, because the target antigen is a multimolecular complex of the "self" protein, platelet factor 4, and
