Associations between venous thromboembolism onset, D-dimer, and soluble fibrin monomer complex after total knee arthroplasty
BACKGROUND Prevention and early detection of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is important after arthroplasty of the lower limb. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations between VTE and hemostatic markers after minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty (MIS-TKA). METHODS We performed a retrospective study of 50 patients (55 knees) who underwent primary unilateral MIS-TKA wit...
متن کاملPrevention of venous thromboembolism after total hip and knee arthroplasty.
Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) remains a clinical threat to orthopaedic surgeons, despite of a large number of clinical trials and research performed on this subject. Various guidelines and recommendations are available in clinical practice but the search continues for an ideal agent or combination of agents for VTE prophylaxis. Rudolf Virchow first described Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and the su...
متن کاملVenous thromboembolism prophylaxis after total joint arthroplasty.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis after total joint arthroplasty is considered best practice. However, over the past 5 years, there has been considerable debate about the ideal prophylactic regimen or modality. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American College of Chest Physicians published their most recent clinical practice guidelines about VTE prophylaxis in 2011 an...
متن کاملSymptomatic venous thromboembolism after total knee replacement.
Chemical prophylaxis is known to reduce the venographic prevalence of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) after total knee replacement (TKR), but it is uncertain whether this affects the incidence of symptoms. Further analysis depends on the basic epidemiology of thromboembolic symptoms. We therefore studied the pattern of such symptoms in a consecutive series of 1000 patients with primary TKR, with par...
متن کاملMaternal and pregnancy characteristics affect plasma fibrin monomer complexes and D-dimer reference ranges for venous thromboembolism in pregnancy.
BACKGROUND D-dimers have a high negative predictive value for excluding venous thromboembolism outside of pregnancy but the use in pregnancy remains controversial. A higher cut-off value has been proposed in pregnancy due to a continuous increase across gestation. Fibrin monomer complexes have been considered as an alternative diagnostic tool for exclusion of venous thromboembolism in pregnancy...
