Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the economic and health impacts of hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism (VTE) on patients and healthcare systems across ten countries, including Australia and the UK.
- A mixed-methods approach was used, including surveys with healthcare professionals and a systematic literature review, leading to the identification of five key clinical specialties: orthopedics, oncology, ICU, cardiology, and obstetrics/gynecology.
- The total estimated cost of hospital-acquired VTE was $41,280 million, affecting patient mortality rates and accounting for 150,081 deaths, highlighting significant implications for healthcare systems.

Urine genomic tests with high negative predictive value could further reduce unnecessary diagnostic testing and morbidity, but the economic impact is unknown. This study modeled the financial impact of Cxbladder Detect on microhematuria evaluations.
