ABSTRACT
Hormonal exposure in young women increases the risk of venous thromboembolic disease (VTE). Thrombophilia testing is often proposed in women of childbearing age before the initiation of contraception. However, the presence of a familial history of VTE has the potential to be more accurate than the presence of inherited thrombophilia. OBJECTIVE:
To demonstrate an association between the risk of VTE in young women with hormonal exposure (pregnancy or oral contraceptive use) and the presence of a previous episode of VTE in their first-degree relatives, according to whether or not a detectable inherited thrombophilia was present.METHODS:
We will perform a multicenter case-control cross-sectional study. The main risk factor is defined by the presence of a symptomatic VTE in young women with hormonal exposure. The principle variable is the presence of an objectively diagnosed episode of VTE in first-degree relatives. We will need to include 2,200 family members in 440 cases. EXPECTEDRESULTS:
We expect to improve understanding of the thrombotic risk in first-degree relatives of patients in hormonal context with or without a past history of VTE.Key words
