title: Improvement of patency in small veins following dextran and/or low-molecular-weight heparin treatment.
abstract: A clinical dose of dextran 70 had significant antithrombotic effects in small, severely traumatized veins, and the effect was enhanced by the addition of low-molecular-weight heparin. These effects were achieved without bleeding problems in this model.
