Evaluation of Anti-Xa Target Attainment with Prophylactic Enoxaparin Dosing Regimens for Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Morbidly Obese Patients.

Subcutaneous enoxaparin has been shown to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among hospitalized patients. However, alternative enoxaparin dosing strategies may be necessary in morbid obesity. The objective of this study was to assess the rate of target anti-Xa attainment with three enoxaparin dosing regimens for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in morbidly obese patients.

Use of remdesivir in the presence of elevated LFTs for the treatment of severe COVID-19 infection.

An 82-year-old man with an extensive medical history presented to the emergency room with complaints of generalised weakness and cough. He tested positive for COVID-19 10 days prior to presenting to the emergency room. Although his symptoms started a week prior to diagnosis, his weakness increased, warranting emergency response.
