argatroban for HIT
Submitted by flemingj on Mon, 2009-03-09 10:04
We decided to use argatroban during the danaparoid shortage to anticoagulate our pts w/ HIT. I have found a couple references suggesting a bolus dose followed by an infusion. However, I have not been able to find a reference describing how to mix the bolus with a diluent/what concentration/rate of administration/over what time frame. Can anyone help?? Do you have a pre-printed order or protocol to share? (ph: 902-473-4827, fax: 902-473-7810, jennifer.fleming@cdha.nshealth.ca)
