Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and stress gastric ulcers can be serious complications in patients admitted to the intensive care unit. This review discusses the risk factors associated with the development of DVT and stress-related mucosal disease (SRMD), evaluates the available literature on current options for DVT and stress ulcer prophylaxis, and examines the associated adverse effects and optimal duration of therapy.Entities:
