Brief Summary

There are many different views regarding ideal duration and type of thromboprophylaxis after hip or knee surgery. An important factor in Fast-track surgery is early mobilization, which in itself is thought to prevent clotting. The investigators hypothesize that there is no increase with regards to thrombosis in patients receiving fast-track surgery with early mobilization and chemical thrombosis prophylaxis only during hospitalization.
