Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Clinical Medicine
  • Vascular Medicine

Background:

  • Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant health concern, comprising deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).
  • VTE development is multifactorial, influenced by patient-specific, treatment-related, and disease-specific risk factors.
  • While not limited to specific diseases or demographics, VTE disproportionately affects certain populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the epidemiology and risk factors of venous thromboembolism.
  • To identify and discuss specialty populations with higher VTE prevalence.
  • To provide insights into VTE management in unique patient groups.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing studies on venous thromboembolism.
  • Analysis of risk factors associated with VTE in diverse patient groups.
  • Synthesis of data concerning VTE in oncology, pregnancy, and athletic populations.

Main Results:

  • Patient-related factors (e.g., age, genetics), treatment-related factors (e.g., surgery, immobility), and cancer-related factors significantly increase VTE risk.
  • Populations such as cancer patients, pregnant women, and athletes exhibit distinct VTE risk profiles.
  • Understanding these specific risks is crucial for targeted prevention and management strategies.

Conclusions:

  • Venous thromboembolism is a complex condition influenced by a wide array of risk factors.
  • Certain specialty populations, including those with cancer, undergoing pregnancy, or participating in athletics, face elevated VTE risks.
  • Further research and tailored clinical approaches are warranted for effective VTE prevention and treatment in these groups.
