Overview
In United States, deep vein thrombosis DVT and pulmonary embolism PE costs are[1]:
- Initial hospitalization, average more than $9,800 and $14,000 respectively;
- Rehospitalization (over half of which occurs within 90 days) costs average more than $11,800 and $14,700, respectively.
Thus, after major orthopedic surgery, the use of effective VTE prevention strategies can reduce this economic burden.
On the basis of Canadian cost-effectiveness guidelines in the early 1990s, there is moderate to strong evidence to adopt enoxaparin prophylaxis against DVT after total hip replacement.[2]
