Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) due to heparin flushes: a report of three cases.
Journal of Internal Medicine 1999 September
Three cases of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) are reported that were provoked by daily heparin flushes of central venous access devices. Each case had confounding features that delayed recognition of the problem. A review of the literature revealed only 29 previously reported cases of HIT secondary to heparin flushes.
