Abstract:

Pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism (PA-VTE) consists of thrombotic diseases of the venous system occurring during pregnancy and puerperium, consisting of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism(PE) is the leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The use of efficient and convenient risk assessment model to assess the risk of PA-VTE and carry out hierarchical prevention is the main measure recommended by many countries. But, due to the differences medical levels, economic development and traditional practices of different countries, many countries have successively developed PA-VTE risk assessment model or modified the risk assessment model in other countries according to the actual situation, so that to assess the risk of VTE during pregnancy and puerperium individually and implement corresponding thrombus prevention strategies. By reviewing the PA-VTE risk assessment model in China and abroad, this study aims to provide a basis for the further establishment of VTE prevention and treatment guidelines for pregnant women in China, and provide a reference for obstetric medical workers to formulate VTE risk assessment model suitable for the obstetric population in China.
