What is the role of anticoagulants in the immediate treatment of acute ischaemic stroke ?
Anticoagulants (including unfractionated heparin, low molecular weight heparin or specific thrombin inhibitors) offer no short- or long-term benefits in the immediate treatment of acute ischaemic stroke. Although the risks of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolus are significantly reduced, these benefits are offset by a dose-dependent increased risk of intracranial or extracranial bleeding.
