What does this research mean for the field?

Area-specific barriers to adequate venous thromboembolism prevention drive international variation in clinical practice, indicating that universal treatment guidelines often fail to translate to local contexts and require local supplementary guidance.

Structured PICO

Population

13 senior-level physicians from 13 countries were interviewed regarding clinical practice for secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism.

Exposure

Interviews on clinical practice regarding secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE)

Outcome

Barriers to adequate VTE prevention and area-specific idiosyncrasies in treatment

Universal treatment guidelines for VTE prevention may not fully translate to clinical practice globally, highlighting the potential benefit of local guidelines.

Cate et al. (2017) conducted an observational in Venous thromboembolism (n=13). Clinical practice and decision-making for secondary VTE prophylaxis was evaluated on Barriers to adequate VTE prevention and area-specific idiosyncrasies. Interviews with 13 international thrombosis experts identified area-specific barriers to adequate VTE prevention, suggesting local guidelines may beneficially supplement universal ones.
