VTE Research and Treatment Centers

CDC has provided support to the Thrombosis and Hemostasis Centers Research and Prevention Network to foster collaborative epidemiologic research. This research was designed to identify risk factors for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (DVT/PE) among the U.S. population. Findings will ultimately be used to improve the diagnosis and treatment of people who have these conditions. CDC funded five centers, which collect data from patients of all ages and races while providing services to patients who have DVT/PE and other clotting disorders. These centers have multidisciplinary teams of healthcare specialists and state-of-the art clinical research programs that provide outreach and education programs for patients. Below is the contact information for these centers.
