Review
Contemporary management of acute and chronic deep venous thrombosis.
British Medical Bulletin 2016 March
INTRODUCTION: This review aims to provide an update on the management of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
SOURCES OF DATA: A systematic search of PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane databases was carried out.
AREAS OF AGREEMENT: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are as effective and easier to use than vitamin K antagonists for the treatment of DVT. Catheter-directed thrombolysis can reduce post thrombotic syndrome in patients with iliofemoral DVT. Compression bandaging can help heal a venous ulcer.
AREAS OF CONTROVERSY: Compression hosiery to prevent post thrombotic syndrome. Long-term evidence to show clinical benefit of using endovenous therapies to restore deep vein patency.
GROWING POINTS: Developing imaging methods to identify patients who would benefit from venous thrombolysis. The evolution of dedicated venous stents.
AREAS TIMELY FOR DEVELOPING RESEARCH: Understanding the mechanisms that lead to stent occlusion and investigation into the appropriate treatments that could prevent in-stent thrombosis is required.
