Role of Thrombophilia Testing in Venous Thromboembolism

 

Guest: Ana Casanegra, M.D., M.S.

Host: Kyle Klarich, M.D.

 

Thrombophilia testing identifies inherited or acquired conditions that increase the risk of abnormal blood clotting. Sometimes it can help us guide management decisions for patients, but who and when to test are key questions to address before making this decision.

 

Topics Discussed:

  • What is thrombophilia, what is the difference with hypercoagulable states?
  • Who should consider getting tested for thrombophilia, what does the testing process involve, and what to consider in preparation for it?
  • How can the results of thrombophilia testing impact a person’s medical management and lifestyle?
  • Are there downsides of thrombophilia testing?
