The optimal dosing strategy of low-molecular-weight heparins for the treatment of antenatal venous thromboembolism is not known. The physiological changes associated with pregnancy alter the pharmacokinetic profile of low-molecular-weight heparins, which has led to controversy and subsequent variation in practice, when pregnant women with venous thromboembolism are treated with low-molecular-weight heparins. Our objective was to develop a robust pharmacokinetic model of enoxaparin during the antenatal period to address this problem.
