Prognosis in Deep Venous Thrombosis

Archives of Surgery, 1963
The management of gravitational ulcers and the "bottle leg" present many problems. Much time is given over to the treatment of the conditions both in hospital wards and out-patient departments. Recurrence of ulceration is only too common. The pathogenesis of the condition now seems clear. A previous thrombosis in the deep veins of calf or thigh can be

Deep Venous Thrombosis and Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2015
"Venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a significant risk for all surgical patients, despite validated guidelines. Development of VTE remains a high risk in hospitalized surgical patients, leading to complications in up to 30%. The stratification of patient risk factors and subsequent utilization of a validated prophylaxis and treatment regimen is ...

Diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis

Clinical Cornerstone, 2000
Although deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is often considered an elusive disease that is difficult to recognize clinically, important clinical clues and properly ordered imaging tests can reliably detect or exclude this condition. This article will provide a practical approach to recognizing clinical settings in which DVT should be suspected, suggesting a ...

Prevention of deep venous thrombosis

La Ricerca in Clinica e in Laboratorio, 1987
The increasing widespread use of objective methods to detect deep venous thrombosis has made possible to identify various groups of patients at different risk for developing this pathological condition. The present review provides a tentative scheme, based upon analysis of the most rigorous literature studies, for selection of the available methods of ...

Imaging for Deep Venous Thrombosis

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
The diagnosis of DVT is a perplexing clinical challenge for the emergency physician. The algorithm depicted in Figure 9 from Hobson et al represents a logical strategy for the application of noninvasive studies. Positive studies in the proper setting that are reliably interpreted can dictate anticoagulant therapy, but equivocal or uninterpretable tests

Deep Venous Thrombosis

DeckerMed Family Medicine, 2019
In a patient with DVT, a clot forms in the large veins of the extremities, typically the leg, which can lead to a pulmonary embolus, a potentially life-threatening medical problem. Risk factors include provoking factors such as recent surgery, acquired factors such as obesity or cardiovascular disease, and genetic factors such as protein C or S ...

Neutrophils and Deep Venous Thrombosis

Pathophysiology of Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 1993
A case can be made for the participation of polymorphonu-clears (PMN) in the initiation and propagation of venous thrombosis. In animal models leukocytes adhered to areas of veins that serve as sites for initiation of thrombi in patients. In addition, PMN are found in white layers of thrombin where they may interact with platelets to attract more of ...
