Response - NO
Brief Summary   Those Patients Who Will be Operated for definitive arterial repair will be included in the study considering in lusion and exclusion criteria, informed consent will be obtained, patient will be randomised in two groups, both groups will receive intra-op bolus heparin 80IU/KG Body weight. In post op period, group A will receive maintenance i.v heparin 18 IU/KG For 3 days while group B will not receive any systemic Anticoagulation in post op period.colour Doppler will be scheduled at post op day 2 and 5 OR Earlier in case of absent peripheral pulse in operated limb.
Outcome measures: patency of the repaired artery as measured by Doppler Study at an interval of 48 hours and 5th post op day or at the time of discharge  whichever is later.
Signs of bleeding requiring re-exploration or blood products transfusion.
Re-exploration will be decided after consultation with treating faculty.
