Abstract:
Venous thromboembolism is a common vascular disease with clinically high morbidity and mortality. Prevention and treatment strategies should be based on risk stratification. Anticoagulation remains the mainstay of therapy for patients with venous thromboembolism. More evidence-based studies should be performed to establish the strategy of prevention and treatment for venous thromboembolism in China.
