Combined use of Orgaran and Reopro during coronary angioplasty in patients unable to receive heparin

W J Cantor et al. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 1999 Mar.

Abstract

Orgaran, a heparinoid, has been used successfully in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. We report three cases in which Orgaran was combined with the glycoprotein IIbIIa receptor antagonist Reopro during coronary angioplasty. Orgaran was given as a single intravenous bolus of 1500 anti-factor Xa units. No ischemic or hemorrhagic complications occurred during or following the procedure.
