Anticoagulation is a fundamental of management in venous disease. This chapter discusses anticoagulant therapy and a variety of agents. The current treatment for a new venous thromboembolic event in a patient is anticoagulant therapy, beginning with either unfractionated heparin (UFH) or low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH), while warfarin is concomitantly initiated for chronic therapy.
