The right selection for the patients who need the prophylaxis decrease the rate of the Deep Venous Thrombosis and the complication, which happen through the first three months of the admission history. Assessment of deep venous thrombosis risk in the admitted patients reduce the risk of the disease and the complications. This study aimed to explore the risk of the Deep Venous Thrombosis and the selection of the right prophylaxis regimen to decrease the Deep Venous Thrombosis and complication outcome. A cross - sectional study conducted on 404 randomly selected admitted patients with various admission causes attending Baghdad teaching hospital in Baghdad. Data collection done through 1st of April to 1st of July 2017 , five to six patients were screened for the risk factors available which were divided in five groups of risk factors according to Capirini risk assessment form which used internationally for this reason .The total score then calculated and divided into three categories (mild, moderate and high). The score of 1 to 2 considered as mild with no need for prophylaxis, the score of 3 to 5 considered as moderate, the score of more than five considered as high - risk patients. Moderate and high - risk patients should have prophylaxis administered to them according to the international guidelines of Deep Venous Thrombosis prophylaxis. Statistical test is applied to find the percentage of the patients at risk of VTE in total and subgroup analysis to see the risk factors in the Medical, surgical & gynecological patients separately.
