ABSTRACT
Objective To study the anticoagulation therapy of lower molecular weight heparin in the treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis.Methods Seventy-three patients with acute pancreatitis were divided into anticoagulation group(n=38)and control group(n=35).The serological indexes and prognosis of patients were detected.Results Anticoagulation treatment with lower molecular weight heparin significantly decreased the white blood cell count,increased the oxygen partial pressure in arterial blood,shoaened the duration of hospitalization,and reduced the aggravation rate,secondary operation rate and mortality of patients with acute pancreatitis.Conclusions Anticoagulation treatment with lower molecular weight heparin is safe,effective and can improve the prognosis of patients with acute pancreatitis.
