Prognosis
Venothrombotic disease (VTED)
• superficial thrombophlebitis
• deep vein thrombosis
– lower limb
– upper limb
• pulmonary thromboembolism
• post-thrombotic syndrome
Superficial Vein Thrombophlebitis
Superficial Vein Thrombophlebitis
Superficial Leg Veins  Saphenous (L & S)
Potentially Lethal Misnomer  SFV = deep
Deep Vein Thrombosis
Pulmonary Thromboembolism
Pulmonary Thromboembolism
Post-Thrombotic Syndrome
•
Variously defined
– pain and swelling post-DVT
– 20 – 50%
DVT - diagnosis
•
•
•
•
Clinical Suspicion
D-dimer screen
Compression Ultrasound
Venography
• (MRI expensive)
• (IPG ‘discredited’)
DVT - diagnosis
• Clinical Suspicion - performs poorly
Well’s Criteria
- study excluded those with previous VTED,
needed indefinite anti-coagulation, imminent
death
D - dimer
• D-dimer Assay
– D-dimer is breakdown product of fibrinolysis
– high sensitivity (98%) & modest specificity
(~50%)
– useful for excluding DVT and PE
– not useful for confirming diagnosis
– SHOULD NOT TO BE USED
• post-operative patient
• pregnant patient
• patient with malignancy
Duplex Ultrasonography
• Duplex US
– above knee DVT
• Sens = 96%
• Spec = 96%
Haemostasis 23:61-7
• calf dvt
– sens = 80%
Venography
• Gold standard (sens 100%, spec 100%)
Pulmonary Thromboembolism
Pulmonary Thromboembolism
• Diagnosis
– Clinical
– Ventilation - Perfusion Scan (V/Q scan)
– Spiral CT Scan
– Pulmonary Angiogram
PE - clinical diagnosis
• Symptoms of PE in 117 previously normal
patients
– dyspnea
73%
– pleuritic pain
66
– cough
37
– leg swelling
28
– leg pain
26
– hemoptysis
13
– palpitations
10
– wheezing
9
– angina-like pain

Well’s PE Clinical Prediction Rule
• Signs/Symptoms of DVT
3.0
• Alternative diagnoses less likely than PE
3.0
• Pulse > 100 beats/min
• Immobilization

• Previous DVT or PE

1.0
– measured leg swelling AND
– pain with palpation in the deep vein region
– history, physical exam, chest X-ray, EKG, lab results
– bedrest (except access to BR)  3 days OR
– surgery in previous 4 weeks
– receiving active treatment for cancer OR
– have received treatment for cancer within the past 6 months OR
– are receiving palliative care for cancer
• TOTAL: >6 (high 78%), 2-6 (mod 28%), < 2 (low 3%)

PE - diagnosis (V/Q scan)
• high probability V/Q scan (2 defects)
V/Q scan
normal
near normal
 PE ruled out
 PE ruled out
low probability  can’t rule in nor out
indeterminate  can’t rule in nor out
high probability  PE ruled in
Most V/Q Scans are non-diagnostic

Sprial CT Scanning

Risk of DVT  no thrombophylaxis
Major Urological Surgery
15 – 40% risk of DVT
Risk of DVT and PE
Urological Surgery
• Low Risk
– cystoscopy
– transurethral resection prostate (TURP)
• High Risk
– radical prostatectomy
– nephrectomy
– cystectomy
• Patient Factors
– comorbidity, previous DVT-PE, thrombophilia
– hemorrhage

• TURP  Mobilize
• Open Procedures
– heparin 5,000 U sq bid or tid
– LMWH
• enoxaparin 40 mg sq od
• dalteparin 5,000 u sq od
– SCD or GCS
• Mechanical for bleeder / bleeding
• Mechanical + Heparin for multiple risk pts

Why Intervene?
• Risk of PE among untreated DVT ~ 1525%
• Risk of death among PE ~ 20-30%
• Risk of death among untreated DVT ~5%
• Risk of death for treated PE ~ 1.5%/yr
• Risk of death for treated DVT ~ 0.4%/yr
• Risk of major bleed treated PE/DVT
~1.0%/yr
Suspected DVT
• If high clinical suspicion of DVT, treat with
anticoagulants while awaiting the outcome
of diagnostic tests (1C+).
Confirmed DVT/PE
• Clinical assessment risk / benefit of intervetion.
• Draw baseline CBC, PTT, and INR and start:
Low Molecular Weight Heparin
or
Adjusted Dose Unfractionated Heparin IV
or
Adjusted Dose Unfractionated Heparin SQ
Any one of the three are acceptable
Low Molecular Wt Heparin is preferred
(dosing, slightly better efficacy and safety)
Duration of Heparin for acute
DVT/PE
• Most Adults
– minimum 5 days AND
– until INR therapeutic for two consecutive days
• Active Cancer
– minimum 3 – 6 months before converting to
‘indefinite’ warfarin
Duration of Warfarin for DVT/PE
• Warfarin (if not pregnant)
– start concurrently with heparin
– target INR 2.0 - 3.0
• Duration of warfarin
– time reversible risk factors:
– first idiopathic DVT/PE:
– recurrent DVT/PE:
– continuing risk factor

Calf (below knee) DVT
• Below knee DVT  extend proximally in
20% of patients treated with IV heparin
for several days
• Recommend: treatment of below knee

Massive PE
• Thrombolytic Therapy
– highly individualized
– ICU admission
– reserved for echocardiographic right heart
failure

Post-Thrombotic Syndrome
•
Variously defined
– pain and swelling post-DVT
– 20 – 50%
Post-Phlebitic Syndrome
• elastic compression stocking (30-40) during
2 years after an episode of DVT (1A)
• intermittent pneumatic compression for
severe edema (2B)
• elastic compression stockings for mild
edema of the leg due to the PTS (2C).
-------------• Rutosides for mild edema due to PTS (2B)
What are rutosides?
• A substance produced from leaves & flowers of the plant
Sophora japonica
