The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is relatively high in the elderly population, and the disability, mortality, and medical expenses caused by VTE are also high. However, in a large number of randomized controlled and non-randomized controlled studies related to VTE, sufficient attention has not been paid to the elderly population with multiple underlying diseases. Therefore, the vast majority of research results recommended by VTE guidelines come from younger patients and healthy elderly people, at the same time, most relevant VTE prevention and treatment guidelines or consensus are formulated for hospitalized patients, and for non-hospital elderly populations such as home and elderly care institutions that truly need attention and risk of VTE, their recommended opinions are uncertain. In this context, the Peripheral Vascular Disease Management Branch of the Chinese Geriatrics Society has developed a consensus among Chinese experts on the prevention and treatment of VET in the elderly, based on evidence-based evidence such as domestic and foreign guidelines and relevant research.
