Tailored prophylaxis could decrease the intensity and duration of postoperative thromboembolism in patients undergoing CABG.
OBJECTIVE: The current review evaluates recent literature on the different aspects of prophylaxis in postoperative pulmonary and venous thromboembolism and their main risk factors. METHODS: The literature survey was carried out based on the PubMed data using the keywords "coronary artery bypass graft" and "venous thromboembolism" as components of the search field title. RESULTS: Studies reported several risk factors for postoperative thromboembolism including advanced age, postoperative immobilization, type of thromboprophylaxis, obesity, and location of the surgery. CONCLUSION: According to the studies, tailored prophylaxis could be easily adapted to decrease the intensity and duration of postoperative thromboembolism in a patient with several disorders and comorbidities, especially in cardiovascular disease.

Jannati et al. (2019) conducted a review in Postoperative pulmonary and venous thromboembolism post coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Tailored prophylaxis was evaluated on Postoperative pulmonary and venous thromboembolism. Tailored prophylaxis could be adapted to decrease the intensity and duration of postoperative thromboembolism in patients with several disorders and comorbidities, especially cardiovascular disease.
