Epidemiology of deep venous thrombosis in US emergency departments during an 8-year period
This study provides a summary of DVT presentation and management in US EDs during an 8-year period. The findings highlight stable incidence rates, reduced admission rates compared with historical data, and a significant shift toward the use of direct oral anticoagulants, particularly apixaban, for outpatient management. These trends underscore the importance of evidence-based practices and ongoing research to optimize DVT management and improve patient outcomes.
