Considerable progress has been made in the understanding of the risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). The clinical applications of molecular techniques have allowed identification of important inherited, yet not uncommon, risk factors for VTE, such as mutations that cause Factor V Leiden and prothrombin G20210A. However, advances in our understanding have raised several questions regarding the need for, and duration of anticoagulation. At the end of the treatment period, low molecular weight heparins have become the drugs of choice and standard-of-care for VTE. In this review, cost effective diagnostic approaches for patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis, and recommended treatment options using evidence-based approaches, are described. |
