Marc Carrier: The Vermont Model Demonstrates the Power of VTE Prevention

Marc Carrier, Professor at Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Chris Holmes et al, published in JCO Oncology Practice:

”Real-world evidence confirms what trials have shown: guideline-based VTE prevention matters.

In high-risk ambulatory cancer patients, a multidisciplinary program (‘Vermont model‘) led to:

  • VTE: 3.2% vs 7.7% (OR 0.36)
  • 6-month mortality: 16.8% vs 31.3% (OR 0.46)
  • Despite strong evidence, uptake remains suboptimal, closing this gap is an immediate opportunity to improve outcomes in cancer care.”
