Blood Clot (VTE) Polygenic Risk Score
Venous thromboembolism covers blood clots in the deep veins (DVT) and lungs (pulmonary embolism). Surgery, long travel, pregnancy and some medicines raise risk.
A risk score adds up many common variants, each with a small effect, into an estimate of genetic predisposition. It is not a diagnosis.
