Abstrakt: Is the incidence of VTE after knee and hip arthroplasty or hip fracture surgery lower in p... Recommendation Yes, the incidence of VTE after knee and hip arthroplasty or hip fracture surgery is lower in Asian than in Caucasian ethnicities. Background Postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing knee and hip arthroplasty and hip fracture surgery; however, VTE is considered potentially preventable with several modalities of prophylactic management [[1]]. Justification Since the VTE risk after knee and hip arthroplasty or hip fracture surgery in the Asian population is lower than that for Caucasians, the experts agreed that it is justifiable that the VTE prophylaxis protocol can be adjusted from the recommendations for Caucasian patients to suit an Asian patient's characteristics and economic conditions [[7], [28], [35]]. Does tranexamic acid (TXA) increase the risk of VTE after knee and hip arthroplasty or hi... Recommendation No, TXA does not increase VTE risk after knee and hip arthroplasty or hip fracture surgery in Asian patients. Hip fracture surgery includes both internal fixation and hip arthroplasty for treatment of hip fracture in adults, including femoral neck fracture, intertrochanteric fracture, and subtrochanteric fracture.
