Risk of VTE 6-Fold Higher in CLL/MBL Than in General Population
Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis have an increased risk of venous thromboembolism, a study suggests.
Diagnosis & Disease Information
Low-Quality Evidence Underlies Use of Intermittent Pneumatic Compression With Pharmacological Thromboprophylaxis for VTE
Researchers sought to determine whether the addition of IPC to thromboprophylaxis for prevention of VTE is based on sound evidence.

Researchers sought to determine whether patients with cancer were aware of their risk of developing cancer-associated venous thromboembolism.
Interventions Can Improve Administration of VTE Prophylaxis
Improvement seen with electronic alert-triggered, patient-centered education bundle intervention or nurse feedback intervention.
