Details

• Alternative Title:
  Prevention of hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism (HA-VTE) expert panel meeting
• Corporate Authors:
  National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Division of Blood Disorders.
• Content Notes:
  For future reference, meeting participants suggested the use of "hospital-associated"in place of "hospital acquired"because VTEs diagnosed in hospitals are not necessarily acquired there. Also, VTEs that occur in the first 3 months following discharge from a hospital can be regarded as hospital associated, but are not necessarily hospital acquired. This is not an official recommendation statement. The findings and opinions expressed in this report are those of the individual speakers and do not necessarily represent the official position of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
