Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmacological Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Hospitalized Medical Patients A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared UFH and LMWH to prevent venous thromboembolic risk in hospitalized patients, but neither agent significantly reduced the risk of DVT.

Low-Molecular-Weight Heparins and Heparinoids in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
TL;DR: Low-molecular-weight heparins and heparinoids should not be used in the routine management of patients with ischemic stroke and increase the risk of extracranial bleeding, based on the current evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-molecular-weight heparins or heparinoids versus standard unfractionated heparin for acute ischaemic stroke.
Peter Sandercock,Tze Shin Leong +1 more
TL;DR: Low molecular weight heparins or heparinoid appear to decrease the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis compared to standard unfractionated hepar in people with acute ischaemic stroke, but there are too few data to provide reliable information on their effect on other important outcomes, including death and intracranial haemorrhage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevention of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism following stroke: a systematic review of published articles.
TL;DR: Both unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparins/heparinoids (LMWH) are partially effective for VTE prophylaxis after CI, and should be routinely used in patients with motor deficit and reduced mobility and no contraindications.

Indications for thrombolytic therapy in acute pulmonary embolism.
John A. Dieck,James J. Ferguson +1 more
TL;DR: Thrombolytic agents accelerate the lysis of the thromboemboli, offer an excellent alternative to emergency embolectomy, and are likely to decrease the incidence of chronic pulmonary hypertension.
