About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

Together with individual predisposition to form vascular clots and clinical conditions that further increase this risk, venous thromboembolism (VTE) poses a significant additional morbidity and mortality risk for the majority of the world's population. Although VTE causes serious disability and death when undiagnosed, it is a medical condition that can be prevented when diagnosed early. Although all hospitalized patients are at risk of DVT, studies have shown that 75% of hospitalized patients are hospitalized in internal clinics.As a result of this observational study, it was aimed to determine the VTE risk levels of the patients from the time of hospitalization and to determine preventive nursing care for VTE.
