title: [Treatment of venous thrombosis with low molecular weight heparin and fluindione].
abstract: Thirty-one consecutive patients with deep vein thrombosis were treated with Fraxiparine, a low molecular weight heparin, and fluindione, an oral anticoagulant prescribed at an early stage. Despite the weight/biological effectiveness ratio, the dose of Fraxiparine had to be adjusted in 46 percent of the patients to remain within the therapeutic range selected (0.5 to 1 antiXa/ml units). The early administration of fluindione reduced the duration of heparin therapy to 5.75 days. Using a prescription guide on days 2 and 4 might improve the safety of the fluindione induction.
