    Abstract : Despite the fact that venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality there is still insufficient information on VTE risk factors and patient characteristics in the general population. Previously published incidences of VTE (deep venous thrombosis [DVT] and pulmonary embolism [PE]) vary from 71 to 192 per 100,000 individuals per year. READ MORE

  5. 5. Venous thromboembolism: Risk factors, comorbidities, and treatment-associated risk of bleedings

    Abstract : Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the third most common cardiovascular disease, consisting mainly of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Since VTE often is a preventable disease, knowledge of risk factors is critical. Following a VTE, many patients are subjected to extended anticoagulant treatment. READ MORE
