Abstrakt: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality associated with hospitalization. Despite evidence that providing appropriate thromboprophylaxis to those at risk of VTE in hospital, recent data suggest that the delivery of thromboprophylaxis remains suboptimal across the globe, with a lack of standardization in approach to VTE prevention. This review considers the role of VTE risk assessment and interventions to improve the implementation of the VTE prevention pathway and highlights the systematic approach to VTE prevention adopted in England and its impact. Finally, the critical areas for further research and the emerging data presented during the 2022 ISTH annual congress in London, UK, are summarized.
