Abstract

Abstract: Thromboembolic pathologies are considered the third cause of morbidity and cause 10 to 15% of deaths at the hospital level. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common vascular pathology globally and encompasses a high degree of morbidity and mortality in clinical and surgical patients, due to this it is especially important to conduct its correct diagnosis and treatment. The objective of this work is to conduct an updated narrative review on the indications and characteristics of the treatment of deep vein thrombosis, which was conducted correctly. The method to conduct this research was the search for articles in databases (PubMed, SCIELO, and SCOPUS) using formulas previously conducted. In this work, topics are covered in a general way about DVT. Through data extraction, the discussion was written, focusing on the specific and most up-to-date treatment of deep vein thrombosis, its indications, and its characteristics, depending on the population. It is concluded that direct oral anticoagulants are appropriate drugs in most patients, except in pregnant women where conventional treatment is recommended.
