- W4385363080 abstract "Patients undergoing lower extremity amputation after trauma are at high risk of venous thromboembolism. Practice variations persist regarding the optimal pharmacologic agent for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in this patient population. We aimed to compare the efficacy of unfractionated heparin versus low-molecular-weight heparin in preventing venous thromboembolism.Using the 2013 to 2019 American College of Surgeons Pediatric Trauma Quality Improvement Program database, all trauma patients (≥18) who underwent lower limb amputation and received venous thromboembolism thromboprophylaxis in the form of unfractionated heparin or low-molecular-weight heparin were included. We excluded patients who died within 24 hours of admission or those who received no thromboprophylaxis. The primary outcome was the rate of venous thromboembolism. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate the independent relationship between the type of pharmacologic prophylaxis and the risk of venous thromboembolism.A total of 4,103 patients who underwent lower extremity amputation were identified. Patients were primarily young (median age 43 years) with blunt injuries (83%). The overall rate of venous thromboembolism was 8.6%. Most (77%) patients received low-molecular-weight heparin-based prophylaxis. Compared with patients without venous thromboembolism, the venous thromboembolism cohort had a greater injury severity score (19 vs 13, P < .001), had more patients undergoing above-the-knee amputation (48% vs 36%, P < .001), and less frequently received low-molecular-weight heparin (64% vs 78%, P < .001). Multivariable analysis showed that low-molecular-weight heparin was associated with a significantly lower venous thromboembolism rate than unfractionated heparin (odds ratio: 0.65 [0.51-0.83], P < .001).Thromboprophylaxis with low-molecular-weight heparin was found to be superior to unfractionated heparin in lowering the risk of venous thromboembolism among traumatic amputees and should be the preferred pharmacologic agent in this patient population prone to venous thromboembolism." @default.
