Brief Summary: Randomised double blind trial in non-intensive care trauma patients comparing unfractionated heparin UFH or low-molecular-weight heparin LMWH in heparin-induced thrombocytopenia HIT
Detailed Description: This is a randomised double blind trial including trauma patients with need for thrombosis prophylaxis with heparin Patients receive either unfractionated heparin UFH or low-molecular-weight heparin LMWH

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia HIT antibodies are measured on days 1 and 10 There are daily platelet counts On discharge an ultrasound doppler of the lower extremities is performed to rule out deep vein thrombosis DVT

Three months after discharge every patient is answering a questionnaire about thromboembolic complications following discharge

The key questions of the study are whether the two heparins cause HIT-antibodies in differing frequencies and if yes whether these differences lead to different clinical outcomes
