Venous thromboembolism following major orthopedic surgery.
ABSTRACT Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important complication of major orthopedic surgery (total hip arthroplasty-THA, total knee arthroplasty-TKA, hip fracture surgery-FHS) and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Despite this, not all patients receive an appropriate prophylaxis, often due to a disproportionate fear of bleeding complications. A challenge in the manageme...
متن کاملFatal vascular outcomes following major orthopedic surgery.
Major orthopedic surgery is known to be associated with potentially serious arterial and venous vascular complications, although uncertainty exists about current event rates. Using electronic databases and investigator contact, we identified randomized and cohort studies reporting overall mortality and fatal vascular events. Where possible, studies reporting high autopsy rates (>60%) were exami...
متن کاملThe cost-effectiveness of fondaparinux compared with enoxaparin as prophylaxis against thromboembolism following major orthopedic surgery.
BACKGROUND The selective antithrombotic fondaparinux is more effective than the low-molecular-weight heparin enoxaparin for prevention of venous thromboembolism (deep-vein thrombosis [DVT] or pulmonary embolism) in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery, but its cost-effectiveness is undetermined. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of fondaparinux relative to enoxaparin as pr...
متن کاملSerotonin reuptake inhibitors and bleeding risks in major orthopedic procedures.
BACKGROUND Risk of abnormal bleeding in surgery patients prescribed serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs) is unclear. Considering the quantity of literature on abnormal gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding with SRIs, relatively little exists on SRI bleeding risks in surgical procedures. We investigated whether SRIs increase the risk of surgical bleeding in patients undergoing knee and hip total joint ...
متن کاملEffects of anticoagulation on markers of activation of clotting following major orthopedic surgery
INTRODUCTION This study examines makers of activation of clotting following three chemoprophylactic regimens used for prevention of postoperative venous thromboembolic disease (TED) following high-risk surgery for TED. METHODS Patients having elective primary knee or hip replacement surgery received variable dose warfarin (target international normalized ratios 2.0-2.5), 1 mg warfarin daily s...
