AB  - Despite refinements and standardization in the use of anticoagulants, many 
      problems remain for clinicians. Dr. Crowther describes appropriate starting and 
      maintenance doses of warfarin, factors accounting for inter- and intra-observer 
      variability and importantly, the management of the over-anticoagulated patients 
      and bleeding patients. Dr. White compares unfractionated heparin (UFH) and low 
      molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and addresses whether there truly are differences 
      in the efficacy and safety of different LMWH's for both arterial and venous 
      indications. Dr. Ortel discusses the management of the problem patient who 
      requires anticoagulants, the management of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, the 
      pregnant patient, the obese patient, patients who have renal insufficiency and/or 
      liver disease, patients with malignant disease, and other challenging patient 
      populations.
