Abstract

Venous thromboembolism prophylaxis after traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury is both necessary and problematic. Here, we discuss the type, dose, and timing of pharmacologic prophylaxis as well as the practice of prophylactic vena cava filtration. The discussions entail brief literature about each practice, the author’s practice patterns, and the recommendations of national organizations.
