Extended thromboprophylaxis after hip or knee replacement.

Abstract:

:Early discharge from the hospital after total joint arthroplasty has increased the need for extended outpatient thromboprophylaxis. Multiple controlled clinical trials and several meta-analyses of these data have examined various agents in different regimens. These data indicate that extended prophylaxis with a low-molecular-weight heparin after knee or hip arthroplasty significantly reduces the number of venous thromboembolic episodes with no increases in major bleeding. The data also show that > 98% of patients given long-term low-molecular-weight heparin prophylaxis remain free from symptomatic deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Therefore, to minimize patient risk safely and cost-effectively, extended prophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin once-daily for 4 weeks after surgery should be considered for patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.

  • Geometric Analysis of the Proximal Humerus in Elderly Japanese Patients: Implications for Implant Selection in Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty.

    abstract::The implants used in reverse shoulder arthroplasty were originally designed for white patients; thus, they might not be optimal for smaller Asian patients. The selection of reverse shoulder arthroplasty systems is limited in Japan. The purpose of this study was to measure the geometry of the proximal humerus in elderl...
