Abstract
Hypercoagulable tendencies may develop in critically ill dogs and to a less known extent, cats. Although the use of antithrombotics is well-established in critically ill people, the indications and approach are far less well-known in dogs and cats. The goal of this article was to review the relevant CURATIVE guidelines, as well as other sources, and to provide recommendations for critically ill patients with directions for future investigation.
