Thrombus-related conditions are increasing in the elderly population. This article provides an overview of thrombus formation and describes the various pharmacologic options for prevention. Thromboprophylaxis requires an assessment of the risks and benefits of treatment so that catastrophic bleeding does not result. A practice model, the "S.A.F.E. Triad" is proposed to provide a framework for addressing safety concerns, while algorithms assist with decision-making.
血栓相关疾病在老年人群体中日益增多。本文概述了血栓形成,并描述了各种预防血栓的药物选择。血栓预防需要评估治疗的风险和获益,以避免灾难性出血。提出了一个实践模型,即“S.A.F.E. 三联征”,为解决安全问题提供了一个框架,同时算法也有助于决策。
