Taking stock of advances in
clinical recognition, laboratory testing, and pharmacologic therapy as well as basic aspects of pathogenesis, the Third Edition of
Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia reinforces its standing as the leading guide to accurate diagnosis and effective management of this complex condition. Featuring added chapters on bivalirudin and pediatric heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), this reference also updates all 20 chapters of the previous edition to regard anew such topics as management of HIT using direct
thrombin inhibitors and the special problems of renal failure and cardiac surgery in HIT patients.
