Abstract
- Venous thromboembolism is a common complication following a hip replacement. It was the authors' impression that prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis has changed in recent years. The authors felt that it was important to repeat a survey, done in 1997, on the use of thromboembolism prophylaxis among British orthopaedic surgeons.
