| Research Abstract |
Purpose of this study is to clarify frequency of DVT in general Japanese population. Subjected were 1501 residents, mean age was 60.0 years old, in 7 cities in Japan. We collected the subjects by public information, homepage, newspaper and radio. Screening of DVT was performed by compression ultrasound method in sitting position. In results, 63 DVTs were determined and the frequency of DVT was differed from each city The mean frequency of DVT was 4.20% (range 0-7.1%). The frequency of DVT was 4.56% (0-9.2%) in more than 40 years (n=1283). the frequency of DVT in general Japanese population using collecting method may be about 4.2-4.6%.
