Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is diagnosed by symptoms like pain and swelling, along with a physical examination to check for areas of swelling, tenderness, or discoloration on the skin. The Deep Vein Thrombosis treatment is aimed at preventing the clot from getting bigger and stopping it from breaking loose, which could cause a pulmonary embolism. Additionally, treatment focuses on reducing the chances of Deep Vein Thrombosis occurring again. Effective management options may include anticoagulants, compression stockings, and lifestyle changes to enhance vascular health. Consult a Deep Vein Thrombosis treatment specialist for comprehensive care tailored to your needs.
A fibrinolytic drug is infused into the clot using a catheter guided by X-rays.
A device such as the ClotTriever or CLEANER is used to remove the clot.
A balloon is inflated to widen a narrowed vein, and a stent may be used to keep it open.
A filter is placed in the inferior vena cava (IVC) to reduce the risk of blood clots moving to the lungs.
