Low molecular weight heparin associated with spinal anaesthesia and gradual compression stockings in total hip replacement surgery. Arar Study Group.
The benefit/risk ratio of administering heparin during spinal anaesthesia in patients undergoing total hip replacement (THR) has not been studied widely. We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind study to compare low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for 10 days and placebo in patients undergoing THR performed under spinal anaesthesia associated with gradual compression stockings. Effi...
متن کاملIntraoperative heparin in addition to postoperative low-molecular-weight heparin for thromboprophylaxis in total knee replacement.
The administration of heparin during operation has been reported to enhance the efficacy of thromboprophylaxis in patients undergoing total hip replacement. We have performed a small pilot study in which intraoperative doses of heparin were given in addition to the usual postoperative thromboprophylaxis with enoxaparin in 32 patients undergoing total knee replacement. The primary endpoint was d...
متن کاملPrevention of deep-vein thrombosis after total hip and knee replacement. Low-molecular-weight heparin in combination with intermittent pneumatic compression.
After total hip (THR) or knee replacement (TKR), there is still an appreciable risk of developing deep-vein thrombosis despite prophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH). In a prospective, randomised study we examined the efficacy of LMWH in combination with intermittent pneumatic compression in patients undergoing primary unilateral THR or TKR. We administered 40 mg of enoxaparin dai...
متن کاملGeneral anaesthesia and total hip replacement.
TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT has become a frequent procedure since the initial work of Charnley, McKee, Watson, Ferrar and Ring in the early 1960s. The most popular technique, that of Miiller, ~ involves a socket prosthesis fixed in the acetabulum with acrylic bone cement. A femoral prosthesis is then fixed in the medullary cavity with the same acrylic cement. Peroperative complications associated wit...
متن کاملThromboprophylaxis with low dose unfractionated heparin plus compression stockings reduces thromboembolic complications of colorectal surgery.
Data sources Studies were identified by searching Medline, EMBASE/ Excerpta Medica, and the Cochrane Library (1970 to May 2000). Meeting abstracts and reference lists of reviews were handsearched. Study selection Studies were selected if they were randomised controlled trials (RCTs) or controlled clinical trials; compared prophylactic interventions using heparins or mechanical methods or both w...
