Abstract
Use of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis after total knee or hip replacement was low, but increasing during the study period. This is probably due to increased availability of novel oral anticoagulants. Further initiatives to increase guideline recommended use of prophylactic anticoagulation after orthopaedic surgery are warranted.
