This study found that aspirin 81 mg BID was non-inferior to aspirin 325 mg BID for the prevention of venous thromboembolism after revision total knee arthroplasty.

Comment: It appears important to give aspirin twice a day (not just once a day) in order to get optimal results for the prevention of venous thrombolism after knee surgery.
