A proposito di questo titolo

This essential second episode of RxPlained moves from VTE risk identification to complete management strategies. We break down the comprehensive approach to Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), covering:

  • Non-Drug Measures: What role do compression stockings and walking play? We discuss their primary use for symptoms and whether they truly prevent Post-Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS).

  • Anticoagulation Mastery: A phase-by-phase guide to VTE treatment (acute vs. chronic). We detail the use of LMWH, Warfarin, Fondaparinux, and DOACs, including how treatment duration shifts based on factors like pregnancy or active cancer.

  • Clinical Considerations: Don't miss the critical focus on drug interactions, monitoring requirements (INR, anti-Xa), and special population considerations (e.g., CKD, obesity, and pregnancy) for each anticoagulant class.

  • Prophylaxis Guidelines: We wrap up with a concise overview of VTE prevention (prophylaxis) guidelines for both major orthopedic and non-orthopedic surgeries.
