Clinical Profile of Patients Admitted With Venous Thrombosis to a Tertiary Care Hospital in India
Venous thrombosis was a common cause of admission, with isolated DVT being the most frequent presentation, followed by PTE and CVT. Smoking and malignancy were commonly observed in this cohort, reflecting their prevalence rather than independent risk associations. Most patients with confirmed DVT and PTE would have been retrospectively classified as "likely" by the modified Wells criteria; however, this represents case-based classification and not validation of the model. Further prospective studies are needed to evaluate diagnostic tools and risk factors.
