ABSTRACT
Introduction: venous thromboembolic disease is a severe and potentially deadly process.
Objective: to update the epidemiological data on the venous thromboembolic disease.
Methods: for the information collection, several searches were made in the trial registry of the Cochrane Group for Peripheral Vascular Diseases and in the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials located in the Medline Cochrane Library database. Unrestricted Medline and on-line published articles in different websites were also included.
Results: venous thromboembolic disease stands as the third cardiovascular-related cause of death followed by ischemic cardiopathy and stroke. No consensus appears to be reached in relation to gender-incidence impact. The annual incidence of pulmonary thromboembolism in the general population has been estimated from 70 to 180 cases a year per 100 000 inhabitants, with an age-related increase. The pulmonary thromboembolism is indeed responsible for 5-10 % of in-hospital deceases.
Conclusions: venous thromboembolic disease is a largely prevalent, disease with high morbimortality and unchanged incidence; it is frequently asymptomatic and hence, unsuspected. A set of efficacious preventive measures are available.
