Same-day emergency care: a retrospective observational study of the incidence and predictors of venous thromboembolism following hospital-based acute ambulatory medical care Same-day emergency care (SDEC) is an expanding area of hospital acute medical care. It aims to minimize delays and manage medical emergency patients w…

We report 0.9% VTE within 90 days of hospital led acute ambulatory care attendance; similar to traditional medical inpatient care without thromprophylaxis. Further VTE research needed in this rapidly expanding area of medicine#VTE#SDEC @danlasserson.bsky.social

Should patients seen in #SDEC #AmbulatoryCare receive #VTE prophylaxis?

Our data #WarwickMedSchool @susie-shapiro.bsky.social show VTE rate in SDEC as high as hospitalised patients.

Ability to ambulate does NOT equal reduced VTE risk.

Professor Adam Gordon places the chain of office over Professor Jugdeep Dhesi's head.

Professor Jugdeep Dhesi speaks at a lectern. She wears a silver chain of office.

@arc-wm.bsky.social Acute Care Interfaces theme has researched alternatives to acute hospital admissions. With Hospital at Home, patients are treated as though admitted to hospital, but within their home www.arc-wm.nihr.ac.uk/impact-chang...

Let's move away from the "shock is sepsis until proven otherwise" now that we have plenty of quick (ahem, POCUS) ways to narrow the differential.
