Re: DVT and PregnancyFrom: Griffiths Malcolm (Malcolm.Griffiths@ldh-tr.anglox.nhs.uk)Fri Feb 23 02:18:57 2001
I don't think I or my colleagues would have had this patient on Heparin through pregnancy. We would simply have dad her on low-dose heparin. However if you have decided to use it there are no real special precautions at this dosage needed. If she has CS, I'd use anti-embolism stockings of pneumatic calf compression (or both) as well. -----Original Message----- From: Steven W Crawford [mailto:scrawfmd@zoomnet.net] Sent: 22 February 2001 22:44 To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: DVT and Pregnancy Dear List Members, I have a 22 yo G1 at 35 weeks gest, who has been on Heparin 5,000 units SQ. BID since 18 weeks gestation. She is on Heparin due to her history of a left leg DVT a couple of years ago. What should I do at time of delivery? Stop Heparin soon? Any difference in management if she has a c-section versus a vaginal delivery? Thank you very much for your help!

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
