A survey of thromboprophylaxis management in patients with major trauma.
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common life-threatening complication of major trauma. Although clinical guidelines clearly suggest routine VTE prevention with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in this specific group of patients, there is still a lack of strong recommendations regarding the timing and the modality of heparin administration and the role of mechanical prophylaxis. W...
متن کاملRivaroxaban for Thromboprophylaxis After Nonelective Orthopedic Trauma Surgery in Switzerland.

متن کاملEnoxaparin for thromboprophylaxis after major trauma: potential cost implications.
OBJECTIVE To determine the cost-effectiveness of enoxaparin compared with low-dose-heparin (LDH) for thromboprophylaxis after major trauma and to assess the economic significance of major bleeding as a complication of the use of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH). DESIGN Decision model analysis of the cost and efficacy of enoxaparin at preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) and the risk and...
متن کاملDeep-vein thrombosis in high-energy skeletal trauma despite thromboprophylaxis.
We report the incidence and location of deep-vein thrombosis in 312 patients who had sustained high-energy, skeletal trauma. They were investigated using magnetic resonance venography and Duplex ultrasound. Despite thromboprophylaxis, 36 (11.5%) developed venous thromboembolic disease with an incidence of 10% in those with non-pelvic trauma and 12.2% in the group with pelvic trauma. Of patients...
متن کاملAdequate thromboprophylaxis in critically ill patients
Venous thromboembolism is a relatively frequently occurring complication in critically ill patients admitted to the ICU despite prophylactic treatment with subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin. Several studies show that critically ill patients have significantly lower plasma anti-factor-Xa activity levels compared to control patients after administration of subcutaneous heparin. Robinson a...
