Venous thromboembolism: exploring incidence and utility of screening in individuals with dual diagnosis
This study found a high incidence of DVT for the DD population at all three timepoints with a high proportion identified via screening ultrasonography on admission to rehabilitation. Further research is needed to investigate the incidence of VTE and utility of screening ultrasonography in this population.
