[quote=Anonymous]"And last but not least, heparin can cause serious, catastrophic complications on its own. " CNM who attends births in a hospital here. Just to reiterate a PP's point, we use saline locks in L&D, not Heparin locks (even though we are in the bad habit of calling them "Heplocks"). We would not use Heparin in any L&D that I have ever worked in except under extraordinary circumstances because it can cause/worsen bleeding. There are plenty of reasons to object to IV access in labor, but this, fortunately, is not one of them. [/quote]
