Evaluation of the clinical performance of a risk scoring model for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in cesarean section for a largely Chinese population

Implementation of a standardized thromboprophylaxis protocol adapted for cesarean deliveries in our local obstetric population maintained pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis at a low rate and did not result in an increase in bleeding complications. A lower incidence of VTE was observed after implementation of the protocol than that in the preprotocol period.
