This study tracks over 1,700 heart patients who had hip or knee replacement surgery. Researchers want to see how often bleeding or blood clots happen in the months after surgery. The goal is to find better ways to prevent these complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to better guidelines for preventing blood clots and bleeding in heart patients undergoing joint replacement surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly test a new drug or therapy. Results may not apply to all patients or hospitals.

Who is studied
The study is planned to include 1,000 patients with cardiovascular diseases who undergo routine endoprosthetics of large joints of the lower extremities. During the follow-up, patients will be divided into subgroups depending on the scheme of perioperative prevention of thromboembolic complications and the presence of risk factors. The comparison will be carried out in the appropriate subgroups.
