Deep Vein Thrombosis

Deep vein thrombosis condition is one of the world renown vein incompetence that will lead to a fatal condition if mistreatment or underdiagnosed. Generally, DVT is part of the venous thromboembolism that can lead to a fatal condition which can cause sudden death. Currently, the awareness of this condition had been raised purposely on the early diagnosis of this condition. A lot of studies on this topic had been done previously by researchers in their effort to contribute to this condition to be improved.
In the early years, K. S. Dhillon et al. had investigated the ‘Postoperative Deep-Vein Thrombosis in Asian Patients is Not a Rarity: A Prospective Study of 88 Patients with No Prophylaxis’ [17]. As the title of the research mentions that the study involved 88 subjects with no …show more content…
Moreover, based on the research done, the author did not find any differences in the mean age of the patients or the main duration of the operation of the surgery in the patients with and without Deep Vein Thrombosis. It is also confirmed that by physical signs, based in diagnosis lead to the lack on the reliability of the diagnosis. Furthermore, it is believed the incidence of Deep Vein Thrombosis is not a rarity as what common people believed. Additionally, in 2007, Susanna SS Tan et al., in her research group had reported on ‘Early Deep Vein Thrombosis: Incidence in Asian Stroke Patients’. Generally, in their study discussed about the incidences of Deep Vein Thrombosis in Asian population [13]. Thus, based on the results obtained from this study, the incidence of Deep Vein Thrombosis in Asian population is less established compared to the Caucasian population. Even though the rate of the incidence is low from reported cases, but from the consequences of undetected deep vein thrombosis can cause a fatal condition which is sudden
