    What is Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)?

    Deep Vein Thrombosis or DVT is a condition where blood clots form in the deep veins, most commonly in the legs and pelvis region. This condition usually develops due to a combination of factors, including decreased blood flow, increased tendency to clot, and inflammation in the blood vessels. The blood clot thus formed can partially or completely disrupt the blood flow through the vein and result in extreme pain, swelling, and discoloration in the affected areas. 

    Normally, deep vein thrombosis is not a life-threatening condition, but if left untreated, it can lead to serious complications, such as Pulmonary embolism (PE), post-thrombotic syndrome, etc., which can be fatal. Thus, treatment is crucial for DVT. Before suggesting the most suitable treatment method, the doctor diagnoses the condition thoroughly to identify its severity and then creates a customized treatment plan. To learn more about the condition and its treatment, it’ll be best to get in touch with SurgiKure.

    Deep Vein Thrombosis Management & Treatment Options

    The management or treatment option for DVT is determined based on the severity of the conditions. The following options for DVT treatment are available for the patients:

    1. Leg elevation and mobilization- To improve blood flow.
    2. Compression stockings for DVT- To prevent the pooling of blood and alleviate symptoms.
    3. Anticoagulation medications- To prevent blood from clotting on its own. 
    4. Thrombolysis- To break the existing blood clots. 
    5. Thrombectomy surgery- To remove blood clots from the vessel. 
    6. Vena cava filter placement- To prevent the blood clot from reaching the heart or lungs. 
    7. Angioplasty and stenting (Venous stenting)- To open narrowed or blocked blood vessels and use stents to keep them open. 

    In the early stages, the doctor is likely to recommend lifestyle changes, such as elevating legs, exercising, eating healthy, etc., but as the condition progresses, anticoagulation medications or thrombolysis becomes a more effective method for DVT treatment. If the medications alone cease to work, then the doctor may recommend surgical removal of the clot or placing a filter in the deep vein (vena cava) to prevent life-threatening complications of DVT. Compression stockings for DVT are advised to be used consistently regardless of the treatment method to manage the symptoms.
