“…19 At appropriate infusion rates, iloprost allows safe heparin administration in patients with HITT antibodies provided there is close monitoring of hemodynamics and careful use of alpha agonists (norepinephrine and phenylephrine) to prevent or treat hypotension. [9][10][11][12][13] Our data support the hypothesis that heparin may be used with impunity in patients with HITT when their platelets are completely inhibited with iloprost and their hemodynamics are closely monitored. The main side effect of iloprost is hypotension secondary to vasodilation.…”

“…2,4,14,15 Patients with HITT antibodies were subsequently tested with a HIPA assay using increasing micromolar concentrations of iloprost (Ilomedin, Berlex Laboratories, Edison, NJ) to determine the dose that completely inhibited platelet aggregation to heparin. [9][10][11][12] During surgery, patients with anti-heparin-PF4 antibodies were treated with iloprost to achieve complete inhibition of HIPA before heparinization (group A or treated group). Ten additional patients with normal platelet counts and without history of prolonged exposure to heparin or thrombosis were matched for age, gender, and procedure, and were included in the study as controls (group C).…”

“…However, in vitro results do not always correlate with in vivo results. For example, desmopressin and prostaglandin E 1 prevented platelet consumption in vitro but failed to preserve platelets in vivo ( 29, 30). The definitive assessment of efficacy and safety will need to await further in vitro and in vivo studies.…”

“…As a consequence, the platelet count was dramatically altered in our control group. Experimental ECC is usually performed either using in-vivo models with larger species, such as dogs (23)(24)(25), pigs (26)(27)(28), sheeps (29 , 30), or simply in-vitro models using anticoagulated human blood (10,15,19). When smaller species such as rabbits and rats were studied for ECC, the latter were mainly used for studying the thrombus formation in extracorporeal shunts (31), or for performing a locally controlled perfusion (32)(33)(34).…”
