Healthy lifestyle behaviors after venous thromboembolism: the patient's perspective.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients living after a venous thromboembolism (VTE) can experience a complex mix of physical and psychological symptoms. The complex nature of these symptoms creates challenges when designing effective rehabilitation programs for this patient group. Currently, there is a paucity of evidence on how to best rehabilitate these patients. A better understanding of the physical and psychological impact of VTE on the adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviors is needed to design an optimal rehabilitation program specifically for patients living post-VTE. This study is part of a larger initiative to develop an evidence- and theory-informed rehabilitation intervention targeting the psychological well-being and functional capacity in VTE survivors.
