What is the role of venous ultrasonography? Ø Proximal ultrasonography q Examines only the common and popliteal veins Ø Whole-leg ultrasonography q Examines entire deep vein system, including calf veins q Avoids repeated testing q But may identify more patients with isolated, calf vein DVT Ø Both methods associated with acceptable 3 -month incidence of VTE after negative results © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What is the role of other types of testing?

How should a pregnant patient be evaluated for suspected DVT? Ø Compression ultrasound should be the initial test q Follow-up ultrasonography is recommended for patients with a normal result on initial testing Ø Thrombosis in the iliac veins q Suggestive symptoms include whole-leg edema or discomfort in the flank, back, or buttock q Evaluate pelvic vessels with ultrasonography and/or MRI Ø D-dimer assays have decreased specificity during pregnancy, but results become reliable by 3 rd trimester in most women © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What other diagnoses should clinicians consider?

When should clinicians consider consulting a specialist? Ø Imaging is nondiagnostic Ø Recurrent DVT is suspected q Post-thrombotic syndrome occurs in 20%-50% of patients with symptomatic DVT, and differentiating post-thrombotic syndrome from recurrent DVT can be challenging q Criteria for diagnosing recurrent DVT are lacking, especially in venous segments with residual abnormalities q Suspicion for DVT should be high despite negative testing © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What other underlying conditions and clinical manifestations should clinicians look for? Ø Cancer q 3. 5%-10% diagnosed with cancer within 12 months of VTE q Benefit of an extensive screening protocol has not been established q Tailor cancer screening to age, symptoms, risk factors Ø Recurrent VTE q There is no consensus on which, if any, patients should be tested for thrombophilia © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
CLINICAL BOTTOM LINE: Diagnosis. . . ❖ To stratify a patient’s risk for thrombosis § Use a clinical prediction rule § Combine the results with a sensitive D-dimer assay § Whole-leg ultrasound may limit the need for repeat testing but will identify more patients with isolated calf vein thrombi ❖ In patients diagnosed with DVT § Extensive cancer screening strategy and thrombophilia testing is controversial ❖ Consult a specialist when § Recurrent VTE is possible § Imaging studies are nondiagnostic or negative, particularly if the suspicion for thrombosis is high © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
How should clinicians decide whether to treat patients on an oupatient or inpatient basis? Ø Most people with VTE can be safely treated as outpatients q With LMWH treatment q Outcome is better at home than in hospital Ø Consider admitting patients who have difficulty managing outpatient treatment © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What local measures should clinicians recommend? Ø Compression therapy q Conflicting data on efficacy for reducing risk for postthrombotic syndrome Ø Early ambulation q Not associated with increased risk for PE in patients with acute DVT q May lead to more rapid resolution of limb pain q Has the potential to decrease the frequency and severity of post-thrombosis syndrome © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
When should clinicians start anticoagulants? Ø If there is a high probability of VTE before testing plus a low risk for bleeding q Initiate short-acting anticoagulant while awaiting results of diagnostic work-up Ø If the diagnosis is acute proximal DVT q Initiate parental anticoagulant, apixaban, or rivaroxaban immediately unless these drugs are contraindicated q If vitamin k antagonist is chosen for long-term therapy, start it on same day as parental anticoagulant Ø If the diagnosis is isolated calf vein thrombosis q Initiate anticoagulation immediately, especially if the risk for proximal propagation is high and the risk for bleeding is low © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.

How should clinicians monitor anticoagulation? Ø Heparin q Use a. PTT to adjust the dose of UFH but not LMWH Ø Vitamin K antagonists q Evidence lacking on specific dosing-algorithms q Consider lower initial doses for the elderly q Monitor with INR every 4 weeks once the level of anticoagulation stable q Home monitoring is safe and effective in motivated patients who demonstrate competency © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
When should clinicians stop anticoagulation? Ø Reversible risk factor q Pregnancy, hormonal therapy, surgery, temporary immobilization q Treat for 3 months Ø Unprovoked or recurrent VTE or active cancer q Extended anticoagulation with no prespecified stopping point (if bleeding risk is low) q Reevaluate risks and benefits annually q Recurrence risk may be higher when D-dimer levels are elevated 1 mo after anticoagulation discontinued © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What options are available for patients who cannot use anticoagulants? Ø Anticoagulant contraindications q Active bleeding q Recent surgery or recent hemorrhagic stroke Ø Inferior vena cava filters q May be used in acute VTE when anticoagulation is absolutely contraindicated q May increase risk for recurrent DVT q Use usually requires an absolute contraindication to anticoagulation © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
When should clinicians use thrombolysis? Ø Anticoagulant therapy alone is usually recommended instead of thrombolysis q Thrombolysis increases the risk for bleeding Ø Consider thrombolytic therapy for patients who q Have iliofemoral DVT or impending venous gangrene and a low risk for bleeding q Are more concerned about preventing postthrombosis syndrome and less concerned about bleeding © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
What treatment modifications are needed in pregnancy and in other hypercoagulable states? Ø Novel oral anticoagulants are contraindicated Ø LMWH therapy preferred over warfarin and UFH Ø When VTE develops in pregnancy, continue treatment for 3 mo or until 6 wk after delivery, whichever is longer Ø Warfarin may be used postpartum and during lactation Ø Initial management of acute VTE same in patients with thrombophilia as in those without q Consider extended course for patients with first episode of VTE and thrombophilia who have other persistent risk factors or who have had a life-threatening thrombosis © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
How should clinicians treat the postthrombotic syndrome? Ø It occurs in 20%-50% of patients following DVT and is characterized by recurrent pain and swelling with ulceration and signs of stasis skin changes Ø Consider the possibility of recurrent DVT Ø Advise patients to elevate their feet whenever possible Ø Use graduated compression stockings (20 -40 mm Hg) q Contraindications include severe peripheral arterial disease and open wounds Ø Out-patient pneumatic compression is reserved for patients who don’t respond to foot elevation and stockings © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
When should clinicians consider consulting a specialist? Ø Recurrent idiopathic VTE Ø Recurrent VTE while on anticoagulation Ø Complications necessitating alternatives to anticoagulation Ø Management of DVT in pregnant patients © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
CLINICAL BOTTOM LINE: Treatment. . . ❖ Most DVT can be treated with LMWH outside the hospital § LMWH + VKA results in less recurrence than UFH + VKA § NOACs are as effective as LMWH+VKA, and the bleeding risk is lower ❖ Data conflict on elastic compression stockings to prevent PTS ❖ Treat patients with reversible risk factor for 3 months § Treat longer if the bleeding risk is low and VTE is unprovoked, recurrent, or accompanied by active malignancy ❖ Only use IVC filters when anticoagulation is contraindicated ❖ Consider thrombolytic therapy when there is a low risk of bleeding and either massive iliofemoral DVT or impending venous gangrene ❖ Manage most patients with thrombophilia like those without it © Copyright Annals of Internal Medicine, 2015 Ann Int Med. 162 (5): ITC 5 -1.
