What is Knox Et Al 2023 Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Low Body Weight Critically Ill Patients about?

This study compares the effects of reduced-dose versus standard-dose venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in critically ill patients with low body weight (≤50 kg). Results indicate that reduced-dose prophylaxis is associated with a significantly lower risk of composite bleeding (5% vs 12.5%) while maintaining similar rates of thromboembolic events. The findings suggest that a reduced-dose strategy may be beneficial for this patient population.
