Occasionally, abnormalities in coagulation are to blame.

    Treatment of deep leg vein thrombosis. SYNOPSIS The management of established thrombosis has been transformed by low molecular weight heparins.  
    http://www.australianprescriber.com/magazines/vol21no3/vein_thrombosis.htm
    
    Extractions: The management of established thrombosis has been transformed by low molecular weight heparins. Their pharmacokinetics and dynamics allow them to be given subcutaneously in a dose determined by body weight alone. While this permits treatment of selected patients at home, great care is needed. The correct diagnosis remains essential because the risks of early recurrence and bleeding are little different from those observed with standard heparin. Symptomatic calf vein thrombosis should be treated. Sixty years ago, before heparin came into general use, symptoms of deep leg vein thrombosis progressed from calf to thigh or to the opposite leg in 60% of untreated patients. Embolism occurred in 40% of those with thrombosis and half the patients with pulmonary embolism died. Today, we expect symptomatic extension or embolism in less than 5% of people treated for extensive deep leg vein thrombosis with standard heparin or a low molecular weight heparin followed by warfarin. Deaths from pulmonary embolism should be below 2%.

    Extractions: MCS Council for Leadership on Thrombosis Awareness and Management formed to advance prevention and treatment of overlooked public health problem TARRYTOWN, NY, February 14, 2002 Calling deep-vein thrombosis (DVT), or blood clots, an underestimated public health problem, the Council for Leadership On Thrombosis (CLOT) Awareness and Management announced its formation today to raise awareness, advance prevention and treatment, and reduce the dangers of DVT, a potentially life-threatening condition that affects approximately 2 million Americans per year. Comprised of medical experts representing various specialties and affiliated with leading U.S. institutions, the Council plans to target both health care professionals and the general public with such major initiatives as a national DVT FREE screening program of 7,500 patients at more than 200 hospitals, and the ClotAlert™ Resource Center, a multifaceted campaign to educate consumers, physicians and health professionals about the risk factors and symptoms of DVT. “Deep-vein thrombosis represents one of the most commonly occurring and serious medical conditions, yet it has never received the same attention as heart attack or stroke,” said Samuel Z. Goldhaber, MD, director of Venous Thromboembolism Research Group and Cardiac Center’s Anticoagulation Service at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Mass., associate professor of medicine, Harvard Medical School, and co-chair of the Council for Leadership On Thrombosis Awareness and Management. “The public is not nearly as educated about the potential health risk of DVT, nor is the public aware of the symptoms associated with blood clots. Our mission as a Council is to raise awareness of DVT so the public can recognize the symptoms and urgently seek medical help.”

    Extractions: Jerry Ninia, MD, FACOG Back to Primer Table of Contents Thrombophlebitis is a life-threatening complication of many medical conditions and surgical procedures and is neither rare nor limited to people with recognized risk factors. Epidemiological data have shown that in a given practice of 10,000 patients, 39 cases of venous thromboembolism(VTE) and 11 deaths from this cause will be recognized per year. In fact, the actual incidence is much higher, since most cases go undetected. One out of every nine people will develop DVT before age 80, and clinically recognized VTE accounts for one out every 20 deaths after age 50. These statistics make it imperative for us to have a high index of suspicion when signs and symptoms of this disorder are present. Superficial Thrombophlebitis Superficial thrombophlebitis (ST) occurs when there is inflammation and thrombus within a superficial vein and is most commonly seen in the lower extremity in association with varicose veins. It is due to the three basic components of Virchow's triad - venous stasis, endothelial damage and hypercoaguability - and is most frequently seen following trauma to a vein (external or internal) or a decrease in activity level, such as with travel. Typically, patients complain of localized tenderness, redness and warmth in association with a hard vein. Diffuse leg pain and edema are not uncommon, but the findings are usually more localized.

    Extractions: Protocol Number: 98-CC-0067 Treatment of Acute Deep Vein Thrombosis of the Lower Extremity with Intraclot, Pulse-Sprayed Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator, Plus Heparin and Warfarin: A Pilot Study 98-CC-0067 Acute deep venous thrombosis (ADVT) of the lower extremity is a common disorder. Traditional treatment with anticoagulation therapy is effective in reducing the associated risk of pulmonary embolism, but is ineffective in restoring patency of the venous system of the lower extremity. While systemic thrombolytic therapy has been shown to be more effective than anticoagulation, catheter directed local thrombolytic therapy is the most effective treatment in restoring venous patency. Current treatment regimens are based on use of urokinase, infused continuously through catheters imbedded into the thrombus. These treatment regimens require doses on the order of 10,000,000 units of urokinase, resulting in significant bleeding complications and prohibitive costs. Experience at NIH with pulse-spray treatment of axillary subclavian venous thrombosis with rtPA indicates that this is a highly effective and safe alternative thrombolytic regimen. The proposed protocol is designed to evaluate the efficiency, safety, and doses of rtPA associated with pulse spray directed rtPA treatment of the more extensive venous thrombosis encountered in the lower extremity.

    Extractions: Patient Notes VOL 108 / NO 4 / SEPTEMBER 15, 2000 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE You probably have not heard much about deep vein thrombosis, even though it is a fairly common problem. It is a disorder that affects mainly the veins of the lower leg and thigh. A blood clot (or thrombus) can form in the veins deep in these areas, and the clot then blocks the flow of blood and causes swelling and inflammation. This swelling and redness are sometimes called thrombophlebitis, or just phlebitis. In the most serious cases, a blood clot from the leg breaks off and travels through the bloodstream. The moving clot is called an embolus, and it can lodge in the lungs, brain, or heart and cause serious damage. Who is likely to have thrombosis? Deep vein thrombosis occurs in about 2 of every 1,000 people. Most often it affects persons over age 60. It tends to develop during long periods of inactivity, such as lengthy road trips or airplane flights, as well as during illness or after surgery. Sometimes it occurs because a person's blood clots too quickly, and sometimes it is associated with trauma. Old age, overweight, and some types of drug therapy also increase the risk. What do you need to know about it?

    Extractions: Languages Spanish Portuguese German Italian Danish Japanese Korean Arabic Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW From staff and wire reports GENEVA, Switzerland International medical experts and officials from 16 major airlines across the globe on Tuesday heard a leading expert on deep vein thrombosis link the condition to most types of travel. Organized by the World Health Organization's cardiovascular disease unit, the closed-door meetings in Geneva, Switzerland, began Monday and concluded Tuesday. "Travel-related thrombosis is a better name," Dr. John Scurr, a British surgeon who has studied the syndrome, told Reuters. "Studies have shown it is a common travel problem." Scurr is a surgeon at Middlesex and University College Hospital in London, England. PREVENTION Snacking, moving can decrease risk of flight-related blood clots Also speaking Tuesday was Dr. Derek Yach of the WHO, who agreed with Scurr that deep vein thrombosis is probably a bigger issue than it currently appears to be. Physicians say the condition is still rare, however. Gregory Hartl, a spokesman for the United Nations health agency, called the two-day meeting significant. "We've come to this with an open mind. We need to review the research done and see what gaps need filling and what, how and when it needs to be done on an international scale," he told The Associated Press.

     Extractions: Who should be tested? Indications include: Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism Venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism pose a serious health problem. In this country half a million people are hospitalized each year and 50,000-100,000 deaths occur due to venous thrombosis which is also a leading cause of maternal death. The incidence of symptomatic venous thrombosis cases is approximately 1 in 1000 people per year. Venous thrombosis is a multifactorial condition caused by a combination of genetic, aquired or environmental influences. Natural anticoagulant systems (the protein C system and antithrombin III) are in place to keep coagulation in check. Excess clotting occurs when there is a disturbance in one of the coagulation inhibitor mechanisms or in natural lysis of clots.
