New treatment option for Postthrombotic Syndrome
Official title DVT Burden and the Risk of Post-thrombotic Syndrome
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06385353
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is the most common chronic complication of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), with major consequences for patient quality of life and cost of management. Identifying patients at high risk of developing PTS could be useful for its prevention and may lead to more appropriate therapeutic strategies to reduce its incidence and severity.
