- The Saudi Critical Care Society developed clinical guidelines for preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) in adults with trauma to provide evidence-based recommendations for inpatient care.
- A multidisciplinary panel reviewed current literature, assessed the quality of evidence, and generated 12 recommendations, including one strong and ten weak recommendations based on their findings.
- Key recommendations include starting early pharmacologic VTE prophylaxis for specific trauma types, preferring low molecular weight heparin, and using mechanical prophylaxis methods for those who can't take medications.
