There is uncertainty regarding the optimal means of thromboprophylaxis
following total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA, TKA). This systematic
review presents the evidence for acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin)
as a thromboprophylactic agent in THA and TKA and compares it with
other chemoprophylactic agents. A search of literature published between 2004 and 2014 was performed
in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews
and Meta-Analyses guidelines. A total of 13 studies were eligible
for inclusion.Aims
