DVT prophylaxis in the ICU
ICU patients are at high risk for venous thromboembolism, and the majority of patients require prophylaxis. The challenging therapy is thrombocytopenia. Join host Geoff Wall, as he evaluates the results of a new study evaluating the clinical thresholds for chemical prophylaxis.
The GameChanger
The majority of ICU patients eligible for VTE prophylaxis do not receive it. Different clinicians use different thresholds to initiate or stop prophylaxis. The database study discussed provides a potential evidence-based threshold.
