[Annual review of venous thromboembolism in 2022].

ABSTRACT

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) includes pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) and deep venous thrombosis (DVT). The mortality rate of PTE in China is comparable to the international level, accounting for a significant portion of the global disease burden and a major aspect of respiratory diseases. The research on VTE has made rapid progress in recent years, especially in the VTE prevention, diagnosis strategy, risk stratification, treatment guideline, poor prognosis and complications. Researchers have gradually realized that VTE is a chronic disease involved multi-system. It still needs to be further standardized about the complete flow scheme of the VTE. The article reviewed the latest progress in the field of VTE in the previous year, aiming to provide more medical evidence for the future.
