Hospital Protocols for Venous Thromboembolism

To prevent hospital-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE) and related morbidity, every hospital worldwide should establish and enforce a VTE protocol. Los protocolos pueden variar según la institución y el país, pero deben incluir una evaluación de riesgo de TEV que esté ligada a una prevención adecuada y las pautas de tratamiento.

Si bien algunos países tienen protocolos establecidos, la mayoría no los tiene. That is why the campaign urges hospitals, healthcare systems, policymakers and hospital quality review organizations around the world to make VTE protocol and prevention a priority patient safety issue.
