    • The Role of Surgery as a Trigger for Incident Venous Thromboembolism 

      Meknas, Dana (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-08-30)
      Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a collective term for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Surgery is a major and well-established transient risk factor (i.e. trigger) for VTE in the general population. However, the impact of major surgery on the risk of VTE has not been thoroughly investigated when other concomitant VTE triggers are also taken into account. Aim: The aim of ...

    • Surgery As a Trigger for Incident Venous Thromboembolism: Results from a Population-Based Case-Crossover Study 

      Meknas, Dana; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Hansen, John Bjarne; Morelli, Vania Maris (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-20)
      Background Surgery is a major transient risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, the impact of major surgery as a VTE trigger has been scarcely investigated using a case-crossover design.<p> <p>Aim To investigate the role of major surgery as a trigger for incident VTE in a population-based case-crossover study while adjusting for other concomitant VTE triggers. <p>Methods We ...
