Standard-dose unfractionated heparin versus low-dose unfractionated heparin and low-molecular-weight heparin in extracorporeal life support (RATE): an open-label, randomised, non-inferiority trial
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to determine whether low-dose unfractionated heparin (UFH) or therapeutic low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) is non-inferior to standard-dose UFH in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The trial found that both low-dose UFH and LMWH were non-inferior to standard-dose UFH regarding severe bleeding, thromboembolic complications, and mortality, suggesting that reduced anticoagulation targets could minimize bleeding risks in ECMO patients.

"Oslr has become part of my weekly routine on my day off. The clinical relevance of the summaries is outstanding — I'd rate it 9/10. Being able to consume research hands-free is a huge advantage for busy physicians."
