[...]in a one-year period, we have obtained an AP consensus agreement on VTE prophylaxis in knee and hip arthroplasty and hip fracture surgery in Asian patients among AP orthopedic experts. According to the results of the consensus statements, some accepted methods of VTE prophylaxis are different from those published in international guidelines regarding the details of diagnosis and risk factors and methods of prophylaxis. All statements in the survey were accompanied by a text box allowing comments in qualitative responses to be made anonymously. Besides open comments, experts were requested to rate their agreement on each statement according to a Likert scale of 1–9, (1 = strongly disagree, 9 = strongly agree) [11]. A cohort study shows that eight of 3070 (0.26%) Asian patients had VTE after THA, and 585 of 57,559 (1%) Caucasian patients had VTE after THA [30]. [...]the Asian patients had a significantly lower likelihood of 90-day VTE when compared with Caucasian patients [30].
