Summary. The incidence of cross‐reactivity between unfractionated heparin and LMWH, fragmin, in patients with HIT is significantly lower (6/15, 40%) than hitherto reported in the literature. 7/9 patients with a negative cross‐reactivity test were treated with dalteparin sodium (Fragmin) without any untoward events.
