F10 and deep vein thrombosis: A meta-analysis showed that aspirin provided comparable VTE prophylaxis compared with factor Xa inhibitors with the lowest risk of bleeding.[10] This is supported by a prospective study conducted by Schmidt-Braekling et al that demonstrated that aspirin in combination with in-hospital pneumatic compression is an adequate DVT prophylaxis treatment after UKA.[11] Considering that aspirin is relatively safe and affordable, the duration of application after UKA may be extended.
