            Aware of the fact that venous thromboembolism is the leading cause of death in hospitalized patients, we carried out a study of thromboprophylaxis. The study was of the retrospective type, a case series of medical and surgical patients hospitalized in the emergency ward. We took into account the indications given by the main scales of embolic risk. We used an Excel database and the SPSS 23 software. In most cases, thromboprophylaxis with enoxaparin was used; we found prophylaxis for low risk in 69%, for medium risk in 81%, and for high risk in 92%. The rate of adverse effects was low. This therapy proved to be cost-efficient, safe, and effective. It is necessary to further improve thromboprophylaxis by implementing strategies such as alarms, adherence to guidelines, protocols, and continued education.
