Hereditary and acquired thrombophilia are risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Whether testing helps guide management decisions is controversial. These evidence-based guidelines from the American Society of Hematology (ASH) intend to support decision making about thrombophilia testing.
In acutely or critically ill medical patients who are receiving mechanical VTE prophylaxis, the ASH guideline panel suggests using pneumatic compression devices or graduated compression stockings for VTE prophylaxis (conditional recommendation, very low certainty in the evidence of effects ⊕ ).
For patients undergoing major surgery, the ASH guideline panel suggests against using inferior vena cava (IVC) filters for prophylaxis of VTE (conditional recommendation based on very low certainty in the evidence of effects, ⊕ ).
In acutely ill hospitalized medical patients, the panel recommends inpatient over inpatient plus extended duration outpatient VTE prophylaxis (strong recommendation, moderate certainty). In summary, why is routine post-discharge extended prophylaxis currently not recommended?

For patients undergoing major surgery, the ASH guideline panel suggests against using inferior vena cava (IVC) filters for prophylaxis of VTE (conditional recommendation based on very low certainty in the evidence of effects, ⊕ ).
Strong recommendations included provision of pharmacological VTE prophylaxis in acutely or critically ill inpatients at acceptable bleeding risk, use of mechanical prophylaxis when bleeding risk is unacceptable, against the use of direct oral anticoagulants during hospitalization, and against extend …
To conduct an update of the ASCO venous thromboembolism (VTE) guideline. After publication of potentially practice-changing clinical trials, identified through ASCO's signals approach to updating, an updated systematic review was performed for two guideline questions: perioperative thromboprophylaxis and treatment of VTE.
