[Incidence of thromboembolism after heart valve replacement: modifying factors].
The most important factors influencing thromboembolic rates after valve replacement are: 1) Cardiogenic factors such as left ventricular function, left atrial size and atrial rhythm. 2) Prosthesis-related factors such as type of prosthesis, position of prosthesis, and time after implantation. 3) Patient-related factors such as quality of anticoagulation and gender. 4) Conditions with hypercoagulability.
