Nursing assessment of deep vein thrombosis

Maureen Anthony. Medsurg Nurs. 2013 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

The seriousness of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and its accompanying morbidity and mortality make early and accurate diagnosis of key importance. Best clinical practice is supported by the use of a clinical decision model that determines risk based on predisposing factors and certain clinical signs and symptoms.
