Venous Thromboembolism Risk in Elderly Arthroplasty
Inclusion criteria: A total of 1540 patients aged 60 years or older who were diagnosed with OA or RA before undergoing TJA in our hospital between January 2017 and December 2021. Exclusion criteria: (1) a history of VTE (3 cases); (2) use of anticoagulation medications (aspirin, clopidogrel, warfarin, rivaroxaban, dabigatran): atrial fibrillation (4 cases), coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with installed stents and anticoagulant therapy (5 cases); (3) joint infection: knee joint (6 cases); (4) tuberculosis of the joint (10 cases); (5) tumors of the joints (10 cases); (6) thrombophilia genetic disorders (0 cases); (7) no preoperative lower extremity ultrasound records (111 cases); (8) no routine blood test records (0 cases). Finally, a total of 1391 patients were enrolled.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
