Determination of Deep Vein Thrombosis Risk in Patients Staying in an Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic

Background: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important life-threatening complication in patients having orthopedic surgery and its risk factors are still debatable. Aim: This study aimed to determine preoperative and postoperative DVT risk, its risk factors and their effects on preoperative and postoperative DVT risk scores in patients having orthopedic surgery and staying in an orthopedics and traumatology clinic. Method: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was performed with 244 patients. Data were gathered with a sociodemographic, health status and prophylaxis for DVT form and the Autar Deep Vein Thrombosis Risk Assessment Scale (Autar DVTRAS). Results: There was a strong significant difference between the preoperative and postoperative mean scores for the Autar DVTRAS (p
