{Abstract}: The International Consensus on Venous Thromboembolism (ICM-VTE), will change our current practice as most recent evidence is included. This fact is not usual in most clinical practice guidelines to date. Many orthopedic and trauma procedures do not require thromboembolic prophylaxis, but it should be considered depending on individual risk factors or major surgeries (total hip or knee arthroplasty, spine surgery or fractures that require immobilization and weight bearing restriction). Within the prophylaxis options, we must notice the strength of the drug preventing venous thromboembolism, but also the effect of hemorrhage and bleeding that it may produce. The use of aspirin and mechanical prophylaxis has been described as the safest and most effective combination in most cases.
