ASH-ISTH Pediatric VTE Treatment Guideline 2025

We are proud to spotlight the ASH-ISTH Pediatric VTE Treatment Guideline 2025, co-authored by an ISOPP member and past president, John T. Wiernikowski (Canada).

This important publication presents 20 expert recommendations and practical implementation guidance on anticoagulant use in children, with a focus on the role of DOACs in treating pediatric VTE. It also outlines key research priorities, including real-world data collection and better understanding of clinically unsuspected thrombosis. A fantastic achievement for John T. Wiernikowski and the wider team!
