Peripartum/postnatal prophylaxis (caesarean): heparin (LMWH or UFH) vs no treatment/placebo

Symptomatic PE · women giving birth by elective or emergency caesarean (elective only (1 trial), emergency or elective (4 trials))

It is very uncertain whether peripartum/postnatal prophylaxis (caesarean): heparin (LMWH or UFH) changes symptomatic PE (timing of assessment unclear, within 6 weeks… compared with no treatment/placebo (very low certainty).
