    Management of Venous Thromboembolism: A Clinical Practice Guideline From the American College of Physicians and the American Academy of Family Physicians

    Vincenza Snow , and colleagues

    Background Venous thromboembolism is a common condition, referring to deep venous thrombosis (a blood clot that can form, most often in the deep veins in the legs, thighs, or pelvis) and pulmonary embolism (which occurs if part or all of the blood clot in a deep vein breaks off and blocks an artery in the lung). Treating deep venous thrombosis at an early stage can help avoid further complications, such as pulmonary embolism. This guideline on treating venous thromboembolism is intended for clinicians caring for patients with a diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.
