Abstract:
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in acutely ill medical patients. Fondaparinux is recommended for the prevention of VTE in this setting, but little information is available on its safety and effectiveness in unselected, "real world" patients. The aim of this paper was to assess the safety and efficacy of fondaparinux in elderly acutely ill medical patients.
