Pre-Existing Vascular Conditions

Meaning

Pre-Existing Vascular Conditions are pathological states of the blood vessels and circulatory system, such as established atherosclerosis, uncontrolled hypertension, or a prior history of deep vein thrombosis, that are present in a patient before the commencement of a new therapeutic protocol. These conditions are critical clinical factors that significantly elevate the inherent risk profile of certain interventions, especially hormone replacement therapies.
