Use of thrombin time to transition from dabigatran to intravenous unfractionated heparin in patients with acute kidney injury

Further research is warranted to validate the safety and efficacy of a TT-guided transition strategy and optimize protocols for hospitalized patients transitioning from dabigatran to UFH.
