Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the safety and effectiveness of aspirin compared to enoxaparin for preventing blood clots in high-risk patients undergoing total joint surgeries, specifically total knee and hip arthroplasties.
- Analyzing data from surgeries performed between 2015 and 2021, the researchers compared patients with a history of venous thromboembolism (VTE) who were given either aspirin or enoxaparin after their surgeries.
- The findings suggest that patients on aspirin had similar rates of serious complications like pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis as those on enoxaparin but experienced fewer bleeding-related issues and complications overall.
