Abstract:
This study analyzes and summarizes the assessment tools, current situation, and influencing factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) among patients. This study aimed to provide a reference basis for developing targeted health education plans and intervention strategies for patients to improve their knowledge and beliefs concerning VTE prevention. This study aimed to increase the implementation rate of VTE prevention measures and ultimately reduce the incidence of VTE.The current studies found that the factors influencing knowledge, attitude, and practice of VTE prevention in hospitalized patients include demographic factors (age, sex, education level, occupation), disease-related factors (treatment stage, injury site, and wards), and other factors (receiving VTE-related knowledge education and having medical workers at home).
