which was positively associated with deep vein thrombosis (odds ratio 1.010, 95% confidence interval 1.003-1.017). The area under the curve to predict deep vein thrombosis was 0.619. The best cut-off value, sensitivity, and specificity
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition described as one or more blood clots forming in a deep vein mainly in the legs and pelvis. DVT is the most important source of pulmonary embolism (PE) [1]. The etiology of DVT is vascular endothelial damage, the stasis of blood flow, and a h...

The pathophysiology of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) is briefly discussed, and the efficacy, dosage and administration, laboratory monitoring, and adverse effects of thrombolytic agents, heparin, and warfarin are reviewed. Acute therapy of DVT and PE is usually initiated wit...
A deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that forms within the deep veins, usually of the leg, but can occur in the arms and the mesenteric and cerebral veins. Deep-vein thrombosis is a common and important disease. It is part of the venous thromboembolism disorders, representing the...
Postoperatively, none of the patients were treated with any known prophylatic method for deep vein thrombosis except elastic stockings. Both preoperatively and six weeks after surgery, all patients were studied by an radiologist using a portable Doppler ultrasonic velocity detector with a transmission...
