NBCA DVT/PE Awareness Survey Methodology

NBCA’s DVT/PE Awareness Survey was conducted by the national survey firm USA/Direct, Inc. The THA/TKA surgeon sample consisted of 200 THA/TKA surgeons screened from an online or Internet research panel. The THA/TKA patient sample, also screened from an online research panel, consisted of 500 adults, 20+ years (mean age 54; 55% female), who had undergone THA/TKA surgery within 12 months of sampling.

NBCA is sharing additional results of its DVT/PE Awareness Survey findings at additional medical meetings in upcoming weeks and months, and through educational DVDs being made available to healthcare professionals in orthopedics nationwide. For more information, or to order free copies of the NBCA DVT/PE Awareness Survey DVD, contact NBCA at 877.4No.Clot (877-466-2568).

NBCA is a patient-led advocacy organization dedicated to promoting patient and public awareness about the signs and symptoms of DVT and PE.
