Risk calculators and risk factors for Deep vein thrombosis causes |
Overview
The cause of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is the formation of a blood clot in the deep veins. Several factors predispose to DVT; however they are referred to as either risk factors or triggers. The word risk factors refers to those epidemiologic and genetic variables that expose someone to a higher risk of developing venous thrombosis. The word triggers refer to those factors in the patients immediate history or environment that may have lead to the occurrence of the venous thrombosis. Risk factors and triggers of DVT are discussed elsewhere.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Deep venous thrombosis can be a life-threatening condition if thromboembolism and subsequent pulmonary embolism occur, and it must be treated as such irrespective of the underlying cause.
