Risk-score-guided prophylaxis may optimize VTE prevention in at-risk pregnancies; reinforces weighted stratification in Level 1 obstetric guidelines.
The Swedish guidelines for obstetric thromboprophylaxis provide a validated, risk-score-based model to optimize VTE prevention in pregnant women.
Lindqvist et al. (2011) conducted a review in Venous thromboembolism (VTE) in pregnancy. Swedish guidelines for obstetric thromboprophylaxis was evaluated. The Swedish guidelines for obstetric thromboprophylaxis utilize a weighted risk score based on major risk factors (5-fold increased risk) to guide treatment in women at moderate-high risk of VTE.
