The incidence of venous thromboembolism is low when risk stratification-based thromboprophylaxis is used after fast-track hip and knee arthroplasty.

Background: The optimal length of thromboprophylaxis after total hip or knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) is unknown. Fast-track protocols have improved patient care and led to shorter immobilization and length of stay (LOS) after THA and TKA, thereby diminishing venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk. Here, we investigated risk stratification-based thromboprophylaxis after fast-track THA and TKA.

Background: As air travel and immobility are risk factors for venous thromboembolism, we aimed to test the hypothesis that internationally transferred trauma patients have a high incidence of venous thromboembolism on arrival.
Methods: A prospectively maintained registry of all international transferred trauma patients who presented to our level I trauma center from January 2023 to June 2024 was retrospectively reviewed. Patients with either lower extremity venous duplex ultrasound or computed tomography scan of the chest with contrast on arrival were included.
Efficacy of Aspirin in Preventing Venous Thromboembolism in Total Knee and Hip Joint Replacement.

Orthopedics and Traumatology, Instituto de Seguridad y Servicios Sociales para los Trabajadores del Estado, Puebla, MEX.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant complication following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA). Aspirin has gained attention as a cost-effective, safe alternative to traditional anticoagulants like enoxaparin, but comparative data on efficacy and safety remain limited.
Methods: This randomized controlled trial compared the efficacy of aspirin and enoxaparin in preventing VTE following TKA and THA.
The Comparison of Aspirin and Direct Oral Anticoagulant as Thromboprophylaxis Following Total Knee Replacement: A Retrospective Study.
Rev Bras Ortop (Sao Paulo)

Departamento de Cirurgia Ortopédica, St. Carolus Hospital, Jakarta, Indonésia.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is still a major challenge after major orthopaedic surgery, including total knee replacement (TKR). The aim of this study was to estimate the risk of VTE with aspirin-only pharmacologic prophylaxis following primary TKR surgery versus direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC). The study included 476 patients who underwent primary TKR from 2016 to 2020.

Department of Angiology, University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted the search for strategies to improve outcomes in affected individuals, including those initially managed in outpatient settings. Thromboembolic events have been reported as a concerning complication.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of primary thromboprophylaxis in outpatients with COVID-19.
