Abstract
Introduction: Chronic liver disease is labeled as a classic acquired bleeding disorder, however it has been demonstrated that these patients present thrombin production within normal range, which raises questions about the International Normalized Ration included in several prognosis stratification scores. Although this population does not seem to be protected from thrombotic events, the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis is mostly withheld from patients with chronic liver disease. Objectives: Our aim is to analyze the incidence of thrombotic events and the percentage of prophylaxis use in in-patients with diagnosis chronic liver disease.
