Core Tip This study suggests that while there is strong correlation between activated thromboplastin time, anti-Xa assay and R-thromboelastography values for patients requiring ventricular assist device support, there is a lack of relevant correlation between heparin dose and degree of effect. This raises concern as various guidelines continue to recommend using these parameters to titrate heparin therapy. A comprehensive strategy for appropriate anticoagulation may therefore warrant a combination of parameter monitoring and warrants further study.
