Abstract
Protamine-heparin-complex antibodies occur frequently in patients undergoing cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass, resulting in specific platelet activation in vitro. Protamine-heparin-complex antibodies are associated with increased protamine requirement after cardiopulmonary bypass and possibly slower recovery of platelet numbers.
