Abstract:
The acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a life threatening event which might cause difficulties in diagnostic and therapeutic considerations because of the nonspecific symptomatic. In addition to the probability of a VTE, the risk stratification is of decisive importance to the further diagnostic and therapeutic management. The introduction of the new oral direct anticoagulation substances offer important variation to the previous therapy options and are mentioned in this article. The duration of the secondary prophylaxis therapy of VTE will be much more influenced by the reduced bleeding risk profile of the new agents.
