Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Heparin-Binding protein is a protein from primary and secretory granluae of white blood cells. It is released when white blood cells become activated and has been advocated as a biomarker for sepsis. The aim of this study is to find out if Heparins in clinical doses can change the level of Heparin-binding protein in plasma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Blood samples are taken from patients before and after Heparins in clinical doses. The effects of heparins on Heparin-binding protein concentration in plasma is measured. This is a small observational study.
