• Data on the optimal approach to heparin management are limited. Some data describe using a weight-based approach or a set minimal
dose or having aPTT in target range within 24
hours as factors associated with a reduced risk for thrombosis (Table 3-11).
•
Most trials comparing UFH to LMWH for VTE
treatment used set aPTT ratios for heparin. Given the more sensitive heparin assays now in use, underdosing of UFH may have been present compared to current doses derived from aPTT ranges determined by anti-factor Xa activity titration. This may have created a bias favoring LMWH in clinical trials that compared LWMH to UFH targeting a predetermined aPTT (60–80 sec) vs. more sensitive assays to heparin (e.g., aPTT target 80–110 sec for anti-factor Xa activity of 0.3–0.7 units/mL).

• Studies establishing the aPTT range for many devices may not have accounted for different assay reagent sensitivities.
• Examples of heparin dosing using aPTT or anti­Xa in VTE treatment are described in Tables 3-12, 3-13, 3-14.

Controversy: It is unclear if an aPTT value within the target range at 24–48 hours or if daily doses 24,000–30,000 units are used lead to different outcomes. Lower daily doses and subtherapeutic aPTT values in the setting of acute thromboembolism may be associated with increased recurrent thromboembolism.

21). The final nomogram for order sets should have specific numbers instead of a range. Smaller bolus dosing may be an option.

Dose increase of 50–100 units/hr may depend on the patient weight.
c
Institution-specific therapeutic aPTT range of 60–90 seconds is equivalent to a plasma heparin concentration of 0.3–0.7 anti-factor Xa activity units/mL or 0.2–0.4 units/mL by protamine titration. Range may vary depending on the assay sensitivity to heparin for a particular reagent and adjusted as reagent sensitivity to heparin changes. Repeat aPTT 4–8 hours post-rate change; 4 hours if no bolus; 6–8 hours if a bolus is administered (see Figure 3-1).
Note: In patients very sensitive to heparin and on very low doses, the titration scale may need to be for smaller quantities for titrating to avoid large % changes in the dose with adjustments (e.g., rate at 400 units/hr and adjustment of 100 and 200 units/hr is a 25–50% change. Consider adjusting to 50–100 units/hr if not using a weight-based approach).

• The upper end of the titration curve may be selected for the aPTT range to ensure adequate anticoagulation in acute VTE treatment (in this example, 70–90 sec).
Timing of aPTT or Anti-Factor Xa Draw During Continuous Infusion Heparin after a Bolus Dose of Heparin
•
The bolus dose may influence measured aPTT/anti-factor Xa values up to 8 hours depending on the amount administered.
•
aPTT or anti-Xa activity assessments shortly after a bolus may suggest a higher degree of anti-coagulation than provided by the continuous infusion alone.
•
Depending on the amount of a bolus (dashed line in Figure 3-1) administered, the aPTT/anti-factor Xa will rise to a point higher than achieved by the continuous infusion (dotted line in in this situation will then drop over time to a value reflective of the infusion rate.
•
In patients who are at high risk for bleeding and
lower risk for thrombosis, the aPTT or anti-Xa target range can be set at the lower part of the target range (e.g., anti-Xa of 0.3 to 0.5 units/mL).

• Figure 3-1 describes the influence of the bolus dose on measured aPTT (or anti-factor Xa activity) and subsequent dosing adjustments. Early aPTT/anti-factor Xa measures after a bolus dose may be higher than observed should no bolus have been administered. This may lead to no dosing adjustment or a downward adjustment. The subsequent aPTT (or anti­factor Xa activity) may then be below the target range, creating a delay in reaching target values. Checking aPTT values earlier than 6 hours after initiating the UFH infusion may be requested to determine if an adequate infusion rate is present (aPTT value close to baseline). UFH bolus doses of >5,000 units can also have an effect on aPTT values drawn up to 8 hours later.

Heparin Resistance
•
Lack of a measurable heparin response in the absence of administering an antidote can occur secondary to reduced antithrombin (benefit of the aPTT assay), excessive factor VIII, or fibrinogen (benefit of anti-factor Xa activity assay). Consider checking that the dose is being infused correctly into the patient as ordered (one trick is to check the volume administered during the shift prior to the lab draw and if it matches the prescribed administration rate). Consider checking an alternative assay (anti-factor Xa if using aPTT), antithrombin, factor VIII, and fibrinogen with infusion rates above 25 units/kg/hr and subtherapeutic assay measurements. If additional clarification is required, consider a low range ACT or sending samples to an outside lab for validation.
•
Patients with acute thrombosis may frequently need higher UFH dose require­ments to attain therapeutic effect as these patients have been noted to elimi­nate UFH more rapidly, possibly because of increased binding to acute phase reactants.
Lower aPTT and anti-factor Xa activity values may occur during
Although saline is commonly used during hemodialysis, heparin or sodium citrate may be used to prevent thrombosis formation in the circuit. See Table 3-15 as an example for using heparin in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Dosing approaches may vary between different approaches to CRRT.

Each nomogram should consider the reagent range used in each laboratory. The aPTT range has to be calibrated by each laboratory and will vary between lots of even the same reagent (see Chapter 18). Initial bolus doses of 25 units/kg (range 10–30 units/kg) followed by an infusion of 5–10 units/kg/hr (range 5–25 units/kg/hr) is one approach.Target aPTT should be a minimum of
1.5 times control or as established within the 0.3–0.7 units/mL anti-factor Xa activity calibrations. Variations may exist between dialysis therapies.

Dose increases or decreases of 50–100 units/hr may depend on the patient weight and sensitivity to heparin.
c
Institution-specific therapeutic aPTT range of 45–75 seconds is equivalent to a plasma heparin concentration of 0.3–0.7 anti-factor Xa activity units/mL or 0.2–0.4 units/mL by protamine titration. Range described is within (but more narrow) than the 0.3 to 0.7 units/mL, but may vary depending on the assay sensitivity to heparin for a particular reagent.

• aPTT or anti-factor Xa activity values can vary
during a 24-hour period secondary to a potential
pharmacokinetic effect. Values can be higher during sleeping periods (early a.m.) compared to during awake hours.
30
Dosing increases and decreases may subsequently occur. For prolonged infusions and frequent daily dosing adjustments, the infusions ordered may be modified (i.e., measuring the aPTT or anti-factor Xa activity at the same time each day) to simplify management.
• If resistance to UFH is suspected, check an aPTT value shortly after a bolus dose to see if a measure response occurs. If no response (increase in aPTT or anti-factor Xa activity) is noted, for example 15–30 minutes after an IV bolus dose, the assay may need to be checked (run anti-factor Xa activity off the aPTT, ACT) or an alternative approach to anticoagulation considered. If the patient is antithrombin (AT) deficient, consider a direct-acting anticoagulant.

Infusion rates may be center-specific. Initial infusion rates of 20 units/kg/hr have been used.
•
Infusion rates over 60 units/kg/hr have been associated with diminished outcomes.
•
Can lead to a drop in antithrombin (AT) level. Impact of replacing AT on heparin requirements unknown, but a change in UFH doses is not commonly seen after AT administration.

Dosing adjustments may be done by bedside ACT (typically every 1–2 hours).
•
Infusion rates and target goals may depend on the age of the patient, circuit, bleeding concerns, and cannulation site.
•
Unclear if the aPTT/anti-factor Xa or ACT is the best test and may vary between centers. Correlation between assays is not strong.

Monitoring should include visual inspection of the circuit for any signs of clot formation (see Chapter 17).

• During ECLS/ECMO, the measured ACT or aPTT may vary without changes in the infusion rate. If one is not corresponding to dosing adjustments, consider adding the other for conformation. For pediatric patients, small pedi­tubes can be used to minimize blood loss. Make sure the correct ACT test is used consistently.

Adverse Effects—Clinical Considerations
•
Excessive aPTT or Anti-Xa Activity: Result could be a hemidiluted sample, especially if the INR is unexpectedly elevated or hemoglobin or hematocrit (Hgb/HCT) is lower. Consider repeating by peripheral phlebotomy.
•
Presence of an oral anti-Xa inhibitor may substantially elevate the measured anti-Xa activity.
•
Continued unexpected values: Check the bag concentration used or vial concen­tration; verify that patient received it or cross-check using an alternative assay such as a low range ACT, anti-factor Xa activity, aPTT, or INR. Some individuals for unexplained circumstances may not respond to a particular assay.
