    Author: Ramakrishna R, Manoharan A, Kwan YL, Kyle PW.
    Journal: Br J Haematol; 1995 Nov; 91(3):736-8. PubMed ID: 8555084.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of cross-reactivity between unfractionated heparin and LMWH, fragmin, in patients with HIT is significantly lower (6/15, 40%) than hitherto reported in the literature. 7/9 patients with a negative cross-reactivity test were treated with dalteparin sodium (Fragmin) without any untoward events.
