Low molecular weight heparin vs no prophylaxis

All adverse effects, including allergies at injection site, minor and major bleeding, others ( · adults undergoing KA

Low‐molecular‐weight heparin showed no clear difference in all adverse effects, including allergies at injection site, minor… compared with no prophylaxis (moderate certainty).

Intervention not reported

Heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) · people undergoing surgical procedures and treated with UFH or LMWH for prophylaxis of thrombotic events lasting at least 5 days

The intervention may leads to lower heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) (low certainty).

Low molecular weight heparin vs vitamin K antagonist (VKA)

All‐cause mortality (up to 3 months) · people with cancer with thrombosis prophylaxis and central venous catheters

Low‐molecular‐weight heparin (LMWH) showed no clear difference in all‐cause mortality (up to 3 months) compared with vitamin K antagonist (VKA) (low certainty).

Low molecular weight heparin vs vitamin K antagonist (VKA)

Symptomatic catheter‐related thrombosis (up to 3 months) · people with cancer with thrombosis prophylaxis and central venous catheters

It is very uncertain whether low‐molecular‐weight heparin (LMWH) changes symptomatic catheter‐related thrombosis (up to 3 months) compared with vitamin K antagonist (VKA) (very low certainty).
