Literature relating air pollution exposure to DVT and pulmonary embolism (PE), in spite of biological plausibility, is sparse. No comprehensive study examining associations between both short and long term exposure to Particulate matter (PM)2.5 and DVT or PE has been published to date. Using a novel PM2.5 prediction model we study whether long and short term PM2.5 exposure is associated with DVT and PE admissions among elderly across the northeastern USA. We estimated daily exposure of PM2.5 in each zipcode. We investigated long and short-term effects of PM2.5 on DVT and PE hospital admissions. There were 453,413 DVT and 151,829 PE admissions in the study. For short term exposure, we performed a case crossover analysis matching on month and year and defined the hazard period as lag 01 (exposure of day of admission and previous day). For the long term association, we used a Poisson regression. A 10-µg/m3 increase in short term exposure was associated with a 0.63 % increase in DVT admissions (95% CI = 0.03 to 1.25) and a 6.98 % (95% CI = 5.65 to 8.33) increase in long term exposure admissions. For PE, the associated risks were 0.38 (95% CI = −0.68 to 1.25) and 2.67 % (95% CI = 5.65 to 8.33). These results persisted when analyses were restricted to location-periods meeting the current EPA annual standard of 12-µg/m3. Our findings showed that PM2.5 exposure was associated with DVT and PE hospital admissions, and that current standards are not protective of this result.
