Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the obstruction of a vein caused by a thrombus. It consists of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), depending on the vein affected. Current therapies include treatment and secondary prophylaxis with anticoagulants as well as acute treatment with thrombolytics in the case of severe events such as PE. Among all anticoagulant drugs, novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have gained popularity in recent years and become drivers of market growth. Nonetheless, low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are still widely prescribed. This analysis of claims data provides a quantitative picture of prescribing patterns for newly diagnosed and recently drug-treated VTE patients in the United States. .
