| Abstract | Background: In major orthopedic surgery, prevention of venous thromboembolism has been based on Unfractionated Heparins (UFHs) over the past decades, then on Low-Molecular Weight Heparins (LMWHs), and on New Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs) more recently. To summarize the comparative effectiveness of UFHs, LMWHs, and NOACs in this clinical indication, we applied Bayesian network meta-analysis to the clinical material (randomized studies) published in two previous reviews focused on this issue. | en |
