Overview
In spite of identifying patients at increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), there is no clear clinical value for screening the general population. Screening for asymptomatic deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with venous compression ultrasound is not recommended for critically ill medical patients,[1] patients undergoing general surgery[2] or orthopedic surgeries.[3]
