No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There are many different views regarding ideal duration and type of thromboprophylaxis after hip or knee surgery.

An important factor in Fast-track surgery is early mobilization, which in itself is thought to prevent clotting.

The investigators hypothesize that there is no increase with regards to thrombosis in patients receiving fast-track surgery with early mobilization and chemical thrombosis prophylaxis only during hospitalization.
