Are doctors prescribing antithrombin correctly? a new study investigates
NCT ID NCT07276074
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks back at how antithrombin, a blood-clotting protein, was prescribed to 160 intensive care patients at Strasbourg University Hospitals over two years. Researchers want to see if these prescriptions were appropriate and how the drug was used in real-world settings. The goal is to improve future prescribing practices.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help hospitals create guidelines for better use of antithrombin, potentially improving patient safety and treatment effectiveness.
- What could go wrong
