Abstract:Objective To summarize the best evidence on venous thromboembolism prevention and management for adult patients after hip replacement, and provide a basis for clinical care. Methods We searched a total of 21 databases and related websites, either from oversea sources including BMJ Best Practice, Guidelines International Network (GIN), National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), Registered Nurses′ Association of Ontario (RNAO), etc., or from domestic sources including Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), CNKI, Wanfang Data,,VIP etc., to collect relevant guidelines, clinical decision reports, practice recommendation reports, evidence summary reports, systematic reviews and expert consensus reports on venous thromboembolism prevention and management for adult patients after hip replacement.All above electronic databases were searched from inception to April 2020. Then we collected publications that met the inclusion criteria, and conducted literature quality evaluation and evidence extraction. Results A total of 11 publications (3 guidelines, 1 clinical decision report, 1 evidence summary report, and 6 systematic reviews) were included. Finally 30 pieces of evidence were extracted and integrated into 6 dimensions, including risk assessment, choice of prevention methods, mechanical prevention, pharmacological prevention, postoperative management, health education. Conclusion The evidence summary on venous thromboembolism prevention and management for adult patients after hip replacement covers the entire process from assessment to postoperative management, which is highly targeted and can be used as a reference and guide for clinical care.
