Introduction:
Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), New Delhi has established a nationwide registry 'Indian Registry for Venous Thromoembolism Disorder (i-RegVeD)' for real-time analytics of sociodemographic profile of patients, disease patterns, management strategies, treatment choices and outcomes of patients with venous thromboemobolism (VTE). The purpose is to generate evidence on VTE in order to fill the gaps in the knowledge of the disease across various demographic regions.
Methods And Analysis:
This prospective hospital-based registry will be a continuous data collection process on the occurrence and characteristics of VTE from the 16 hospital sites pan India. This process would include obtaining clinical profiles, risk factors, diagnostic tests, treatment and outcome information of patients collected from medical records through an active method of data abstraction and data capture mechanism guided by an online web-based tool.
Ethics And Dissemination:
At centralised programme management unit, the study protocol was approved by the Institutional Ethics Committees (IEC) named ICMR-Central Ethics Committee on Human Research and similarly each of the participating site has obtained the ethical approval by their respective IECs. The results from this study will be disseminated publicly on the study website (https://iregved.icmr.org.in) as well as through scientific meetings and publications.
