Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the third most common vascular disease. Medical inpatients, long-term care residents, persons with minor injuries, and long-distance travelers are at increased risk.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication among patients with cancer. Patients cancer and VTE are at markedly increased risk for morbidity mortality. Objective: These evidence-based guidelines of the American Society Hematology (ASH) intended to support patients, clinicians, other health care professionals in their decisions about prevention treatment Methods: ASH formed multidisciplinary guideline panel balanced minimize potential bias from conflicts interest. The...
<h3>Background:</h3> Although several tools to evaluate the credibility of health care guidelines exist, guidance on practical steps for developing is lacking. We systematically compiled a comprehensive checklist items linked relevant resources and that guideline developers could consider, without expectation every would address each item. <h3>Methods:</h3> searched data sources, including manuals international developers, literature (with focus methodology reports from national agencies,...
Abstract Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common source of perioperative morbidity and mortality. Objective: These evidence-based guidelines from the American Society Hematology (ASH) intend to support decision making about preventing VTE in patients undergoing surgery. Methods: ASH formed multidisciplinary guideline panel balanced minimize bias conflicts interest. The McMaster University GRADE Centre supported guideline-development process, including performing systematic...
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)–related critical illness and acute are associated with a risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Objective: These evidence-based guidelines the American Society Hematology (ASH) intended to support patients, clinicians, other health care professionals in decisions about use anticoagulation for thromboprophylaxis patients COVID-19–related who do not have confirmed or suspected VTE. Methods: ASH formed multidisciplinary guideline panel applied...
Background Hereditary and acquired thrombophilia are risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Whether testing helps guide management decisions is controversial. Objective These evidence-based guidelines from the American Society of Hematology (ASH) intend to support decision making about testing. Methods ASH formed a multidisciplinary guideline panel covering clinical methodological expertise minimizing bias conflicts interest. The McMaster University GRADE Centre provided logistical...
An evidence-based approach is considered the gold standard for health decision-making. Sometimes, a guideline panel might judge certainty that desirable effects of an intervention clearly outweigh its undesirable as high, but body supportive evidence indirect. In such cases, application Grading Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) grading strength recommendations inappropriate. Instead, GRADE Working Group has recommended developing ungraded best or good practice...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been defined by the High-Level Expert Group on AI of European Commission as "systems that display intelligent behaviour analysing their environment and taking actions-with some degree autonomy-to achieve specific goals." potential to support guideline planning, development adaptation, reporting, implementation, impact evaluation, certification, appraisal recommendations, which we will refer "guideline enterprise." Considering this potential, well lack...
Abstract Background COVID-19–related acute illness is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Objective These evidence-based guidelines the American Society Hematology (ASH) are intended to support patients, clinicians, and other health care professionals in decisions about use anticoagulation for thromboprophylaxis patients COVID-19 who do not have confirmed or suspected VTE. Methods ASH formed a multidisciplinary guideline panel, including 3 patient...
