Prevention 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 کاملRapid-inflation intermittent pneumatic compression for prevention of deep venous thrombosis.
BACKGROUND Current treatment regimens that are designed to prevent deep venous thrombosis in patients undergoing orthopaedic procedures rely predominantly on drug prophylaxis alone. The purpose of this randomized clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a mechanical adjunct to chemoprophylaxis that involves intermittent compression of the legs. METHODS During a twenty-two month per...

P a t i e n t s 2301 patients who were having primary total knee replacement and weighed between 40 and 136 kg. Exclusion criteria included pneumatic leg compression; immobilization ≥ 3 days; major surgery, stroke, myocardial infarction, or receipt of study drug ≤ 30 days before surgery; increased risk for bleeding ≤ 90 days before surgery; uncontrolled hypertension; thrombocytopenia; drug or a...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of thromboprophylaxis with intermittent pneumatic compression at cesarean delivery.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of thromboprophylaxis at cesarean delivery with intermittent pneumatic compression. METHODS A decision tree model using Markov analysis was developed to compare two approaches to perioperative care at the time of cesarean delivery: 1) no use of perioperative thromboprophylaxis and 2) the use of intermittent pneumatic compression for thromboprophyla...
متن کاملDoes intermittent pneumatic compression reduce the risk of post stroke deep vein thrombosis? The CLOTS 3 trial: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
BACKGROUND Approximately 80,000 patients each year are admitted to U.K. hospitals with an acute stroke and are immobile. At least 10% will develop a proximal deep vein thrombosis in the first month and 1.5% a pulmonary embolus. Although hydration, antiplatelet treatment and early mobilisation may reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis, there are currently no preventive strategies which have be...
