Journal ArticleDOI
A population-based perspective of the hospital incidence and case-fatality rates of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The Worcester DVT Study

TL;DR: Extrapolation of the data from this population-based study suggests that there are approximately 170,000 new cases of clinically recognized venous thromboembolism in patients treated in short-stay hospitals in the United States each year, and 99,000 hospitalizations for recurrent disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Venous thromboembolism risk and prophylaxis in the acute hospital care setting (ENDORSE study): a multinational cross-sectional study.
Alexander T. Cohen,Victor F. Tapson,Jean-François Bergmann,Samuel Z. Goldhaber,Ajay K. Kakkar,Bruno Deslandes,Wei Huang,Maksim Zayaruzny,Leigh A. Emery,Frederick A. Anderson +9 more
TL;DR: A large proportion of hospitalised patients are at risk for VTE, but there is a low rate of appropriate prophylaxis, which reinforces the rationale for the use of hospital-wide strategies to assess patients' VTE risk and to implement measures that ensure that at-risk patients receive appropriate proPHylaxis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for venous thromboembolism
TL;DR: Individual risk factors, or combinations thereof, can have important implications for the type and duration of appropriate prophylaxis and should be carefully reviewed to assess the overall risk of VTE in each patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Europe - The number of VTE events and associated morbidity and mortality
Alexander T. Cohen,Giancarlo Agnelli,Frederick A. Anderson,Juan I. Arcelus,David Bergqvist,Josef G. Brecht,Ian A. Greer,John A. Heit,Julia L. Hutchinson,Ajay K. Kakkar,Dominique Mottier,Emmanuel Oger,Meyer Michel Samama,Michael Spannagl +13 more
TL;DR: The estimated total number of symptomatic VTE events (range based on probabilistic sensitivity analysis) per annum within the six EU countries was 465,715; almost three-quarters of all VTE-related deaths were from hospital-acquired VTE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of risk of death and myocardial infarction in the six months after presentation with acute coronary syndrome: prospective multinational observational study (GRACE)
Keith A.A. Fox,Omar H. Dabbous,Robert J. Goldberg,Karen S. Pieper,Kim A. Eagle,Frans Van de Werf,Alvaro Avezum,Shaun G. Goodman,Marcus Flather,Frederick A. Anderson,Christopher B. Granger +10 more
TL;DR: This risk prediction tool uses readily identifiable variables to provide robust prediction of the cumulative six month risk of death or myocardial infarction and can guide patient triage and management across the spectrum of patients with acute coronary syndrome.
