Venous thromboembolisms, specifically pulmonary embolisms (PEs), represent a significant burden on healthcare systems worldwide, particularly within the setting of trauma. According to the literature, PEs are the most common cause of in-hospital death; however, this condition can be prevented with a variety of prophylactic and therapeutic measures. This article aimed to examine current evidence on the use, indications for prophylaxis, outcomes and complications of prophylactic inferior vena cava filters in trauma patients.
静脉血栓栓塞症,尤其是肺栓塞(PEs),给全球医疗系统带来了沉重负担,在创伤情况下尤为如此。根据文献,肺栓塞是住院死亡的最常见原因;然而,通过各种预防和治疗措施可以预防这种情况。本文旨在研究创伤患者预防性下腔静脉滤器的使用、预防指征、结果和并发症的现有证据。
