Development of VTE
SILENT IN NATURE • “Only 25% of patients with DVT display clinical signs” • “Among patients who die from PE, the diagnoses was unsuspected in 70% of them” O’Meara et al. (1990) Prophylaxis for Venous Thromboembolism in Total Hip Arthroplasty. ORTHOPEDICS
Stein, P. and Henry, J. (1995) Prevalence of Acute Pulmonary Embolism Among Patients in a General Hospital and at autopsy. Chest 1995;108;978-981
“...50% of DVT begin intraoperatively, with the highest incidence occurring during surgery and on the first postoperative day, 75% of DVT develop within the first 48 hours after surgery.”

A high percentage of thrombi form during surgery…

PE generally arise from proximal thromboses;
Femoral DVT’s are responsible for 75% of fatal PE

The Nature and Prevalence of VTE
• DVT occurs in over 50% of some categories of hospitalised patients if prophylaxis is not used. •
Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism. Best Practice Guidelines for Australia and New Zealand. 5th Edition
PE remains the most common cause of preventable death; 7% of all deaths in Australian Hospitals are due to PE.
Access Economics. The burden of venous thromboembolism in Australia. The Australia and Zealand Working Party on the Management and Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism. May 2008
VTE (DVT & PE) is likely to cause 5285 preventable deaths in Australia this year and cost the community $1.72 billion.
DVT cost per patient = $116,970 Direct Hospital Cost = $10,000
