  1. Embolism and thrombosis

    All NICE products on embolism and thrombosis. Includes any guidance, advice and quality standards.

  2. Venous thromboembolism in over 16s: reducing the risk of hospital-acquired deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism (NG89)

    This guideline covers assessing and reducing the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE or blood clots, including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) in people aged 16 and over in hospital. It aims to help healthcare professionals identify people most at risk and describes interventions that can be used to reduce the risk of VTE.

  3. Rivaroxaban for treating pulmonary embolism and preventing recurrent venous thromboembolism (TA287)

    Evidence-based recommendations on rivaroxaban (Xarelto) for treating pulmonary embolism and for preventing a further deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism in adults.

  4. Edoxaban for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (TA355)

    Evidence-based recommendations on edoxaban (Lixiana) for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.

  5. Apixaban for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (TA275)

    Evidence-based recommendations on apixaban (Eliquis) for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.

  6. Dabigatran etexilate for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in atrial fibrillation (TA249)

    Evidence-based recommendations on dabigatran etexilate (Pradaxa) for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.

  7. Venous thromboembolic diseases: diagnosis, management and thrombophilia testing (NG158)

    This guideline covers diagnosing and managing venous thromboembolic diseases in adults. It aims to support rapid diagnosis and effective treatment for people who develop deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). It also covers testing for conditions that can make a DVT or PE more likely, such as thrombophilia (a blood clotting disorder) and cancer.

  8. Apixaban for the treatment and secondary prevention of deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism (TA341)

    Evidence-based recommendations on apixaban (Eliquis) for treating and preventing recurrent deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism in adults.

  9. Rivaroxaban for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in people with atrial fibrillation (TA256)

    Evidence-based recommendations on rivaroxaban (Xarelto) for preventing stroke and systemic embolism in adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.

  10. Edoxaban for treating and for preventing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (TA354)

    Evidence-based recommendations on edoxaban (Lixiana) for treating deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults and preventing them happening again.

  11. Rivaroxaban for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis and prevention of recurrent deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (TA261)

    Evidence-based recommendations on rivaroxaban (Xarelto) for treating deep vein thrombosis and preventing a pulmonary embolism or another deep vein thrombosis in adults.

  12. Dabigatran etexilate for the treatment and secondary prevention of deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism (TA327)

    Evidence-based recommendations on dabigatran etexilate (Pradaxa) for treating and preventing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in adults.

  13. Ultrasound‑enhanced, catheter‑directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism (IPG524)

    Evidence-based recommendations on ultrasound enhanced catheter-directed thrombolysis for pulmonary embolism. This involves using ultrasound waves and a drug to break up the clot.

  14. Percutaneous insertion of a cerebral protection device to prevent cerebral embolism during TAVI (IPG650)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous insertion of a cerebral protection device to prevent cerebral embolism during TAVI in adults. This involves placing a device inside an artery near the heart.

  15. Percutaneous thrombectomy for intermediate-risk or high-risk pulmonary embolism (IPG778)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous thrombectomy for intermediate-risk or high-risk pulmonary embolism. This involves removing the clot through a catheter inserted into a vein.
