Background: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition, particularly prevalent among hip fracture patients, with high morbidity and mortality. Objectives: This study applied the Walker and Avant model to clarify the concept of DVT and enhance clinical understanding.Methods: A systematic concept analysis was undertaken in accordance with the Walker and Avant framework, which delineates eight essential steps from concept selection to the identification of empirical referents. The literature review was conducted using the PRISMA methodology, encompassing a comprehensive search across multiple databases, including PubMed and Google Scholar, covering the period from 2019 to 2023. Studies were included based on their relevance to DVT, publication in English, and the presence of pertinent keywords within titles and abstracts.Results: The analysis confirmed the high incidence of DVT following surgery in patients with hip fractures and identified key risk factors, including immobility and inadequate post-operative care. Prophylactic interventions were shown to reduce the incidence of DVT, underscoring the critical importance of preventive strategies in clinical practice.Conclusion: DVT presents a major postoperative risk, especially in orthopedic patients. This analysis outlines its pathophysiology, key risk factors, and evidence-based strategies to enhance prevention and perioperative care, guiding clinical teams to reduce its incidence and improve outcomes.
