Wrapped up a fantastic day at the VII Forum of Updates in VTE! Huge thanks to our incredible speakers for sharing such insightful perspectives, and to everyone who attended and made the discussions so engaging. #VTE #MedSky #Thrombosis #InternalMedicine #MedEd @luciaordieres.bsky.social

The struggle is real. So much uncertainty for both clinicians and patients! We need further research on this topic to provide better, accurate #APS diagnosis and improve patients' QoL.

Dragons’s Den of the highly fruitful www.invent-vte.com netwerk. Collaboration leads to practice-changing trials!! #ISTH2025

Young male + erythema nodosum (EN) + VTE... Think of Behçet disease!

What should you absolutely think of if you see a young male with acute DVT of this leg? #Medicine #VTE @luciaordieres.bsky.social

Most women taking combined contraception who develop VTE state that they have never been informed of the thrombotic risk. Do you tell your patients about the risk of blood clots?

A recent consensus tries to define the patient with acute PE that would benefit most from Hospital at Home management: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kwL63FTR6... #VTESky #VTE #HospitalAtHome #HemeSky

When starting anticoagulation for VTE, there are two main points: 🔍 Diagnosis. Here, risk-benefit assessment for anticoagulation must be performed. 🗓️ 3-6 months. Here, one must consider reduced doses vs perhaps withdrawing anticoagulation completely.

This past two days, we have participated in the #5ForoETV, a national meeting on #VTE. We have presented our studies on early discharge of DVT from the ER, ethnicity in VTE and artificial intelligence. Always wonderful to meet people who love VTE! online.fliphtml5.com/qimqu/kvcd/#...

API-CAT is finally here! t.co/7g6YSpeWmZ This study really changes clinical practice, let's see why: 🧵

Excited to share with you our experience with DOACs in thrombosis in unusual sites (TUS)! Available @ThrombosisResearch www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

What a great resource if you look after cancer patients 🤗 www.rpthjournal.org/article/S247... @rpth.bsky.social

Our experience soon @ Thrombosis Research! @luciaordieres.bsky.social

Continuation of oral anticoagulation during TAVI led to higher bleeding rates without reducing major complications compared to interruption. by van Ginkel DJ, Bor WL (...) Schotborgh CE et 11 al. in N Engl J Med #MedSky 📖 read the article: https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2407794

This morning at the ward: Female, 40 years old. PE one year prior, non-provoked. DVT six months prior (under vitK inhibitors). Treatment remained the same. MI two months prior, changed to DOAC. Currently admitted due to PE (incidental finding). What would you do in this case? 1/2

"Can red light therapy help prevent blood clot?" This animal study suggest that it might be possible! #VTE #HemeSky #Thrombosis neurosciencenews.com/red-light-th...

📢 Catheter-Related Thrombosis (CRT): A common yet underrecognized complication associated with intravascular devices. 🧵This thread explores the latest evidence on pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment strategies. #Thrombosis #MedicalResearch

🦠 Thromboprophylaxis in COVID-19 outpatients: Modest reduction in VTE risk (NNT: 174) but no impact on death or hospitalization. 🏥 Findings suggest routine use is not warranted in this population.

Really excited to share our real life experience with DOACs in patients with APS: a short 🧵 (You can find the entire article here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kEg-5t5920fO)

🤓 Type of D-dimer assay determines the diagnostic yield of CTPA in patients suspected for PE - @rpth.bsky.social ➡️Hospitals using the Roche Tinaquant assay ordered 21% fewer CTPAs and had an 7% higher positivity rate compared to those using the Siemens www.rpthjournal.org/article/S247...

That one patient who has every single clinical condition that could mask PE...and also PE 🤦 #VTE #medicine #thrombosis #VTESky #IMSky

Reminder: to err is human. When you discover a med error, analyze the environment and operations for which it was made and how those can be improved. This is how we will get better, along with maintaining a non-punitive culture in which we report these errors. #medsky #pharmsky

Am I the only one who thinks “thrombosis and hemostasis” is a subspecialty on its own right? In German it's called #Hämostaseologie #MedSky #HemeSky @jthjournal.bsky.social

Just presented at our National Society #VTE meeting our upcoming recommendations on the management of #PE at Hospital-at-Home Units. Will be sharing here as soon as possible! #Medicine #VTESky #IMSky #thrombosis @etvgregorio.bsky.social

Four years ago #HCWvsHunger started from a single tweet (w only 31 likes) And for one week each year, we put our competitive natures to the very best use. Together we’ve raised >$2.3 million fighting hunger worldwide. We’d love you to join us this year. HCWvsHunger.org

At the SEMI VTE meeting, management of VTE in trans persons has been discussed. Hormonal therapy may pose a challenge when facing anticoagulation. What is your usual practice in these cases? An interesting paper that has been mentioned: tinyurl.com/VTEtran #VTESky #thrombosis #HemeSky #IMSky #VTE

Our platelets, dealing with our daily stress:

Currently happening: The Spanish Society of Internal Medicine (SEMI) is holding its annual VTE conference. If you're around, come say hi! #VTE # #IMSky #Medicine #InternalMedicine

Looking forward to this!

Explanatory discourse is a communication strategy that clinicians and their staff can implement in their current practice. https://ja.ma/4eHx0qf

Are HIT immunoassays truly "positive" or "negative"? 🩸 Not so simple! Using data from 1,393 patients, this study reveals diagnostic value across the entire dynamic range of H/PF4 assays 📊 #HIT #platelet #MedSky #HemeSky #CardioSky www.jthjournal.org/article/S153...

We missed the first post trend, but here it is! Our second home, it's still night out but there is a full day ahead of us! Would love to see your second homes if you wanna share! #MedSky #IMSky

👇🏼 important call for action. And let’s reassure that we have very Well-validated algorithms to minimize unjustified imaging. Pregnancy-adapter YEARS is my favorite www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

🧪Clinical trials say DOACs may be less effective in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) ⚠️ BUT patients included in those trials are, in general, not similar to the patients we see in our daily clinical practice. 1/3

Interesting results...what will the future bring us?

The last two years have seen significant advances in our understanding of fibrinogen and fibrin structure and function. In this review, the authors discuss recent progress and suggest novel research avenues for future studies. www.jthjournal.org/article/S153... #MedSky #Fibrinogen #HemeSky

Hello everybody! 9 years ago, we opened a VTE rapid-access clinic destined to avoid unnecesary hospital admissions in patients with DVT. After more than 1.000 patients, we have recently published this article on the European Journal of Internal Medicine A short 🧵

Hello Everyone! Happy to be here with you all, let's keep learning about VTE! #VTE #thrombosis #vascularmedicine
