In a continuing series focused on vascular surgery, host Rick Greene, MD, FACS, talks to vascular surgeon Marie L. Crandall MD, MPH, FACS, about venous thromboembolism.

Dr. Crandall is Professor and Associate Chair, Research; Chief, Division of Acute Care Surgery; Program Director, General Surgery Residency, Department of Surgery, University of Florida Jacksonville.

*Addendum from Dr. Crandall:

“The timing of VTE prophylaxis after neurosurgical intervention for TBI can be challenging. However, this JAMA Surg retrospective cohort study demonstrated that prophylaxis before 72hrs was associated with greater risk of reintervention and mortality and after 72 hours was associated with greater risk of VTE but not mortality. This suggests that perhaps 3 days would be safest balance for most patients after neurosurgical intervention for TBI.”
