Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a high-risk complication in hospitalized patients, especially in patients with orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, cardiac surgery and tumor surgery. It is also a significant cause of patients’ unexpected death and perioperative death. Through establishment of norms of VTE management system and organizational structure, formulation of perfect VTE risk assessment system and prevention and treatment scheme for hospitalized patients, training of all the medical staff for related knowledge, and test operation of the system in key departments, we established a hospital standardized system of venous thromboembolism prevention and management. Our VTE prevention and treatment work achieved good results through multidisciplinary collaboration.
