LMWH/tPA, but not DNase1, interferes with hemostasis. (A) Experimental design. Rats were subjected to 360° volvulus for <1 min (Sham; N = 2) or 3 hours. Rats received inactivated DNase1 (Control; N = 4), active DNase1 (DNase1, N = 4), or a combination of LMWH and tPA (LMWH/tPA, N = 4) immediately after detorsion of the intestine. One hour after detorsion, blood hemostasis was determined by a tail-bleeding assay. (B) Tail bleeding time. (C) Loss of blood volume. LMWH/tPA, but DNase1, significantly increased the bleeding time and volume. Data shown as Mean ± SD. Statistics: ANOVA.
