Abstract
A conversation with David Sutton, co-director of the Staffordshire Thrombosis and Anticoagulation Centre, University Hospitals North Midlands, UK, and Sue Rhodes, venous thromboembolism (VTE) clinical nurse specialist and joint Anticoagulant Lead at Great Western Hospitals, Swindon, UK. VTE is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality, and is still a bigger killer than breast cancer, prostate cancer, and road traffic accidents.1 While there has been little change in the number of cases since 2010, treatment options have improved. EMJ talked to thromboembolism experts about VTE extension treatment and its role in preventing recurrence.
