چکیده
Reply Dear Sir: We thank Doctors Eriksson, Friedman, Cushner, and Lassen for their letter regarding our recently published manuscript: Potent anticoagulants are associated with a higher all-cause mortality rate after hip and knee arthroplasty [15]. They have challenged the evidence presented in our paper which suggests that potent anticoagulants are associated with higher mortality than multimodal thromboprophylaxis by raising numerous issues related to the selection, analysis, and presentation of the data. Unfortunately they did not address the core messages of our paper which were: (1) that pulmonary emboli occur despite the use of potent anticoagulants; and (2) that these agents have never been shown to reduce mortality.
