For real. I literally had a patient on a heparin drip yesterday and another patient getting SubQ 3x a day. Almost every patient in the hospital on bed rest is getting heparin, unless there is a serious risk of bleeding. Can it be dangerous? Yup. But not as dangerous as a DVT. Open heart surgeries are dangerous. But not as dangerous as a MI and cardiac arrest. People that don’t know anything about medicine shouldn’t talk about medicine. HCQ all over again.
I couldn't find anything specific to CVST about heparin. Heparin is dangerous, but most of the danger is mitigated if we're paying attention. Lovenox is safer, but it can't do everything.
I'm wondering what this guy means about heparin being dangerous in this case. It seems that danger is relative to politics these days.
