Resumen
ROMERA PINTOR, B. N. et al. Should patients with inmovilization of the lower limb be treated with low molecular weight heparin for preventing deep vein thrombosis? . Medifam [online]. 2002, vol.12, n.4, pp.56-59. ISSN 1131-5768.
Thromboprophylaxis with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is effective in reducing the risk of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with plaster-cast inmovilization of the lower limb. It is necessary to treat 23 patients (CI 95 %: 13 to 84, p<0,05) during about 20 days, for the prevention of one DVT.
