Detailed Description

Past research in stable patients with coronary artery disease and those with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTEMI) has demonstrated the safety and efficacy of enoxaparin as an anticoagula...

Eligibility Criteria

  • Known use oral anticoagulants (warfarin or coumadin) or GP IIb/IIIa antagonists within the preceding 7 days or recent administration of any IV or SC anticoagulation within 12 hours including: unfractionated heparin, enoxaparin, and/or bivalirudin.

  • Any history of central nervous system abnormality (i.e. neoplasm, aneurysm, intracranial or spinal surgery) or recent trauma to the head or cranium (i.e \<3 months)
  • Any known history of haemorrhagic stroke or stroke of unknown origin
  • Ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA) in the preceding 6 months
  • Prolonged or traumatic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (\> 10 minutes) within the past 2 weeks
  • Known acute pericarditis and/or subacute bacterial endocarditis
  • Known acute pancreatitis or known severe hepatic dysfunction, including hepatic failure, cirrhosis, portal hypertension (oesophageal varices) and active hepatitis
