背景：台湾症状性静脉血栓栓塞症（VTE）的流行病学尚未得到很好的研究。本研究的目的是报告的流行病学和短期预后的症状性VTE.Methods和结果：这一全国范围内的人群为基础的队列研究，使用台湾国民健康保险索赔数据库，以确定成年人年龄超过18岁的症状性VTE诊断在2002年。我们调查了静脉血栓栓塞的临床特征，并确定了1个月死亡率的独立危险因素。共确定了2，774例患者，平均年龄为62.8岁，女性与男性的比例为1.15：1。症状性静脉血栓栓塞的粗发病率为16.5/100，000人，随年龄增长而稳步增加，从4/100，000患者
Background: The epidemiology of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Taiwan has not been well investigated. The aim of this study was to report on the epidemiology and short-term prognosis of symptomatic VTE.Methods and Results: This nationwide population-based cohort study used the Taiwanese National Health Insurance claims databases to identify adults older than 18 years of age with symptomatic VTE diagnosed in 2002. We investigated the clinical features of VTE and determined independent risk factors of 1-month mortality. A total of 2,774 patients were identified with a mean age of 62.8 years and the female-to-male ratio was 1.15:1. The crude incidence of symptomatic VTE was 16.5 per 100,000 persons, which steadily increased with age, ranging from 4 per 100,000 in patients
