Dear Colleagues,
There is limited literature on the periprocedural use of heparin in Neuro-intervention. The survey attached (see link below) aims to collect data on peri and post procedural heparin and antiplatelet use nationwide.

The survey takes approximately 4 minutes to complete.
Collecting responses from as many individual operators as possible will provide a good representation of variations in practice nationwide (possibly even within individual neuroscience centres). The data will be treated confidentially and anonymously.
This purpose of this effort is to inform future choices at our institution in the absence of an existing national consensus. The results will be shared with you and prepared for the next UKNG meeting.
Many thanks for your time and support.
Best regards,
Dylan Roi
