Oral anticoagulants could be started concomitantly with the heparin so that it could be discontinued in several days, and this approach may prevent most episodes of heparIn-associated thrombocytopenia.

It is theorized that skin necrosis and the otherThrombotic complications observed are the result of heparin-induced in vivo platelet aggregation followed by intravascular thrombosis, and the further use ofHeparin is contraindicated in most instances.

This method of citrate dialysis is safe and effective during continuous blood flow (double-needle) hemodialysis, and is no more difficult to perform than conventional heparin dialysis, but risks the production of unexpected hypercalcemia.

The use of NSS as a continuous flush for radial artery catheters is associated with an increased frequency of catheter occlusion and malfunctions compared with solution containing heparin, and thus is not recommended in patients with normal coagulation status and platelet count.
