With more than 540,000 hospitalized patients developing venous thromboembolism (VTE) each year in the U.S.,1 VTE is the leading cause of preventable hospital death.2 The good news is that as many as 70% of VTE cases in hospitals could be prevented.3

In celebration of World Thrombosis Day, register for a free, one-hour webinar sponsored by Cardinal Health Medical Affairs for the latest evidence-based perspectives and blood clot prevention strategies in the “new normal” — the era of COVID-19 and beyond.

The webinar will feature clinical nurse specialists, Carolyn Crumley and Denise Thomas.
