Abstract:
In order to propose new recommendations concerning deep vein thrombosis prevention in surgery and obstetrics, we identified all the available tools. We performed a Medline search for ten years to review all the studies published in this field. This preliminary stage is mandatory in assessing guidelines able to work out strategies considering each patient in each particular surgical situation. There are no formal guidelines and we outlined a practical approach for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis. Data concerning all available treatment were not classified in an evidence-based strategy.
