- Abstract
Venous thromboembolism occurring in the form of thrombosis or pulmonary embolism is an interdisciplinary problem of modern medicine. It is the third most common acute cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction and stroke. Its incidence and risk of occurrence increase with age and the presence of multimorbidity and reduction in the patient's functional capacity. Given the above, the patient receiving palliative care appears to be at particular risk of developing venous thromboembolism, and the physician caring for them should have clear guidelines for prevention. The first part of this paper presents an analysis of the available literature on assessing risk factors and the incidence of venous thromboembolism.
