Fig 1 Postoperative chemical venous thromboembolism prophylaxis used by surgeons. “Other” includes Fragmin (Pfizer, New York, NY), 5,000 units subcutaneous daily.

Fig 2 Surgeon-estimated overall postoperative (within 30 days) risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE) for a patient undergoing an esophagectomy for any diagnosis. The American College of Chest Physicians describes VTE risk categories as very low (<0.5%), low risk (∼1.5%), moderate risk (∼3%), and high risk (∼6%). These are marked by vertical lines along the bar graph.

Fig 3 Timing of initial chemical venous thromboembolism prophylaxis: Preoperatively includes within 24 hours of the operation, in preoperative holding, or before the incision; postoperative day (POD) 0 includes in the recovery room or during day of the operation.

Fig 4 Postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis allowed by the pain team while the epidural is in place. Multiple answers were allowed. (LMWH = low-molecular-weight heparin [ie, enoxaparin]; SCD = sequential compression device.)
