Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism has been revised and expanded to combine all current knowledge about both of these conditions in one comprehensive volume. Experts from North America and Europe have summarized the published evidence in their field, presenting clear descriptions of these conditions, how to perform the correct test in the appropriate setting and how to manage the patient for optimal results. After a description of the clinical presentation, there is an extensive section on diagnostic procedures. This is followed by chapters on diagnostic and therapeutic management, both in the general population and in particular subgroups, i.e. pregnant women, children and people with pulmonary hypertension. Mechanical and pharmacological prevention are discussed before a closing section on treatment, including interventional techniques.
