New insights from Dr Durr at the @canvector 2025 meeting! Despite standard LMWH thromboprophylaxis, fewer than half of ICU patients reach target anti-Xa levels. ๐Ÿ‘‰ Sub-prophylactic anti-Xa levels = ~3ร— higher VTE risk We need to rethink โ€œstandardโ€ dosing in ICU

D-dimer: more false positives with age. But does an age-adjusted cutoff finally solve the problem? See what the ADJUST-DVT study found when we hear from Dr Gregoire Le Gal at https://t.co/wRJJk4VKF2 on October 25 in Toronto. Register today. Don't miss out.

๐Ÿฉธ Clots tend to come back at the same site as the index VTE! Among 708 patients with prior VTE, recurrences often occurred at the same site as the original event, especially ipsilateral DVTs. Familiar symptoms? Trust your clinical instincts. #ISTH2025 #VTE #DVT
