| Abstract | Information about the risk of venous thromboembolism and prophylactic practices around the world is limited. ENDORSE (Epidemiologic International Day for the Evaluation of Patients at Risk for Venous Thromboembolism in the Acute Hospital Care Setting) study is a multinational cross-sectional survey designed to assess the prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk in the acute hospital care setting, and to determine the proportion of at-risk patients who receive appropriate prophylaxis. All hospital inpatients aged 40 years or above admitted to a medical ward, or those aged 18 years or above admitted to a surgical ward, in 358 randomly selected hospitals across 32 countries were assessed for risk of VTE on the basis of hospital chart review. The 2004 American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based consensus guidelines were used to assess venous thromboembolism risk and to determine whether patients were receiving recommended prophylaxis. Nine Hungarian centers were included in the international survey, and a total of 1300 patients were assessed for thrombosis risk in Hungary. Of these patients 39.9% (N=519) were judged at risk for VTE, including 58.2% (N=253) surgical and 30.8% (N=266) medical patients. 56.6% (N=294) of the total at-risk patients received ACCP-recommended VTE prophylaxis. Among major surgery patients 86.6% (N=219) received recommended prophylaxis compared with 28.2% (N=75) of medical patients. In Hungary more than two-thirds of at-risk hospitalized medical patients did not receive appropriate prophylaxis. ENDORSE results reinforced that a large proportion of hospitalized surgical and medical patients are at risk for VTE worldwide as well as in Hungary. The rate of at-risk patients receiving appropriate prophylaxis should be urgently increased. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
