Key result
A randomized study was designed to compare intermittent pneumatic compression versus low-molecular-weight heparins for deep-vein thrombosis prophylaxis after total knee arthroplasty, with no results reported in the abstract.
Why the study?
Does intermittent pneumatic compression improve efficacy and safety compared to low-molecular-weight heparins in preventing deep-vein thrombosis in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty?

Blanchard et al. (1999) conducted an RCT in Total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Intermittent pneumatic compression vs. Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWH) was evaluated on Deep-vein thrombosis assessed by phlebography. A randomized study was designed to compare intermittent pneumatic compression versus low-molecular-weight heparins for deep-vein thrombosis prophylaxis after total knee arthroplasty, with no results reported in the abstract.
