Nomogram for hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism among patients with cardiovascular diseases.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Identifying venous thromboembolism (VTE) is challenging for patients with cardiovascular diseases due to similar clinical presentation. Most hospital-acquired VTE events are preventable, whereas the implementation of VTE prophylaxis in clinical practice is far from sufficient.

We aimed to develop a nomogram predicting hospital-acquired VTE specifically for patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Material and methods

Consecutive patients with cardiovascular diseases admitted to internal medicine of Fuwai hospital between September 2020 and August 2021 were included. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression were applied to iden
