Abstract
[1] It is also important while assessing the risk factors for the development of DVT and PE separately. Since treatment methods are the same for both DVT and PE, we believe that PE risk is affected by initial DVT risk in three possible ways. [...]severe trauma patients with high-risk factors are prone to manifest a DVT early and experience a lower risk of subsequent PE after receiving therapeutic anticoagulation therapy. [...]in patients with less severe injuries, the overall VTE risk may be incorrectly estimated, and therefore a consequent delay in the use of thromboprophylaxis could result in PE. [...]it might be essential to consider less-injured patients for more aggressive screening and thromboprophylaxis if found positive.
