Abstract

In 2011, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons released a Clinical Practice Guideline` that recommended routine venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis after total joint arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to examine (1) the change in the incidence of 90-day VTE, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism, (2) the change in the utilization of antithrombotic agents; and (3) the change in the economic burden associated with VTE after total hip arthroplasty (THA) from 2011 to 2019.
