Summary

This study tracked 81 adults with pelvic or hip socket fractures to see how often they developed blood clots in their legs or lungs, even while receiving standard clot-preventing medication. All participants got ultrasound scans to find clots that might not cause symptoms. The goal was to better understand clot risks in these serious injuries.
