Perioperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) causes death in 0.1%–7.0% of patients. This review covers VTE risk factors, prophylaxis methods, and current recommendations for prevention.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Clinical Medicine
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cause of perioperative mortality.
  • VTE incidence in the perioperative period ranges from 0.1% to 7.0%.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review risk factors associated with perioperative VTE.
  • To discuss various methods of VTE prophylaxis.
  • To present current clinical recommendations for VTE prevention.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of risk factors for VTE.
  • Analysis of different VTE prophylaxis strategies.
  • Synthesis of current guidelines and recommendations.

Main Results:

  • Identified key risk factors contributing to perioperative VTE.
  • Evaluated the efficacy and safety of various prophylactic measures.
  • Summarized evidence-based recommendations for VTE prevention.

    • Conclusions:

    • Effective VTE prophylaxis is crucial in the perioperative setting.
    • Risk stratification and tailored prophylaxis are essential.
    • Adherence to current guidelines can reduce VTE-related morbidity and mortality.
