        1. Traid of Virchow: Immobility, Venous Endothelial Damage, Hypercoaguable Conditions
          1. Orthopedic Surgery, Spinal Cord Injuries, Age, Congestive Heart Failure, Trauma, Intravenous Medications, Genetics, Malignancy, Pregnancy, Oral Contraceptives, Hormone Replacement, and Obstetric Related Conditions
        2. Complications
          1. Thromboembolus, Pulmonary Embolism,
          2. Management
            1. Some thrombus dissolve without intervention
              1. Anticoagulation Therapy, Thrombolytic Therapy, Filter Placement
              2. Pathophysiology
                1. Due to the lower pressure system within the venous circulation, pooled blood can become coagulated forming a clot; a thrombus remains attached to vein wall where as a thromboembolus detaches into the circulating blood
