Is Anticoagulant Therapy Too Frequently Used in Ischemic Stroke?

Abstract
Heparin therapy is currently used throughout industrialized countries to, treat the acute phase of stroke.

Perhaps with the launching of the new low-molecular-compound heparins, there will be opportunity to set up trial in order to try establishing the indications for early anticoagulation.
