RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF ANTICOAGULATING PROPHYLAXIS IN ONCOLOGICAL PATIENTS, DIED OF THE PULMONARY EMBOLISM IN THE POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD
100 cancer patients who died in the postoperative period of the pulmonary embolism (PE) verified by autopsy were included in this original research. From the total 100 patients anticoagulants were prescribed for 64, low molecular weight heparins were administered to 63 of them. Prescription of the anticoagulants decreases postoperative venous thrombotic complications rate, but doesn’t allows protecting the patients from their development in all cases.
Keywords: pulmonary embolism, anticoagulant prevention, postoperative period
