Abstract

The article discusses the features of surgical prevention of thrombosis in modern conditions. The author notes that due
to the high risk of death, thrombosis that occurs during surgical interventions of various types have a significant impact
on the quality of medical care in the surgical environment. Accordingly, it is very important to determine the risk of
postoperative venous thromboembolism and evaluate the features of its prevention. A particular risk is the development
of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which combines deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Experts
call it a multifactorial and serious disease. Accordingly, it is very important to study theoretical and practical approaches
to the organization of prevention of thrombosis in particular and VTE in general in surgical practice, since even a
competently and effectively performed operation can cause the death of a patient.
Accordingly, the purpose of this work is to identify the features of surgical prevention of thrombosis and VTE in modern
conditions.
