The Effect of Chronic Anticoagulation on Early Postoperative Outcomes Following Total Knee Arthroplasty: A TriNetX Database Study
Patients undergoing TKA while on chronic anticoagulation have worse outcomes within 1 year postoperatively than patients not on chronic anticoagulation. Further studies are needed to validate these findings and to identify sources of the increased risk of complications in this population, as well as identify factors that may mitigate this risk.
