- Both high and low prescriber groups overestimate VTE incidence relative to the actual observed rate of approximately 1%. — Physician beliefs regarding venous thromboembolism prophylaxis at a large multihospital US healthcare system: a cross-sectional survey study
- Just over half of both prescriber groups believed that more than 5% of untreated patients would develop VTE during hospitalization. — Physician beliefs regarding venous thromboembolism prophylaxis at a large multihospital US healthcare system: a cross-sectional survey study
- Because both prescriber groups similarly overestimate VTE risk, epidemiological beliefs alone do not explain the differences in prescribing rates. — Physician beliefs regarding venous thromboembolism prophylaxis at a large multihospital US healthcare system: a cross-sectional survey study
- Both prescriber groups were similarly confident in their independent clinical risk assessment, yet that confidence appears miscalibrated to actual event rates. — Physician beliefs regarding venous thromboembolism prophylaxis at a large multihospital US healthcare system: a cross-sectional survey study
