Pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis in China.

Abstract

The Annual Report on Cardiovascular Health and Diseases in China (2022) intricate landscape of cardiovascular health in China. In connection with the previous section, this eighth section of the report offers a comprehensive analysis of pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis. In recent years, research in the field of pulmonary vessel in China has made great progress. A number of nationwide multi-center registry research results have filled the gaps in the epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary hypertension and venous thromboembolism. Different types of pulmonary hypertension still need attention to the identification of risk factors and/or risk stratification, and venous thromboembolism needs attention in the prevention and the overall management inside and outside hospital. In the future, we look forward to the publication of more high-quality research in China, which could be able to improve relevant guidelines for pulmonary vascular diseases both domestically and internationally.
