A prospective, controlled trial of a pharmacy-driven alert system to increase thromboprophylaxis rates in medical inpatients
Blood Coagulation & Fibrinolysis, 10/05/09
Garcia DA et al. – Although venous thromboembolism is an important cause of morbidity and mortality within the hospital, a significant proportion of at–risk inpatients do not receive measures known to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The results are consistent with previous reports suggesting that alert systems can increase the proportion of hospitalized patients who receive adequate measures to prevent venous thromboembolism.
