Objective: To identify risk factors and develop a pretest scoring system to differentiate patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) in the mechanical circulatory support (MCS) population. The authors present a modified “4TMCS” scoring system, which considers the “type of mechanical circulatory support” that may help identify patients at risk for developing postoperative HIT.
