Venous Thromboembolism Clinical Trial
Official title:
Assessment of Thrombus Stiffness Using Ultrasound Elastography in Venous Thrombo-embolism.
Venous Thrombo-Embolic Disease (VTED) is a serious and common ailment, defined by the growth
of a clot - or thrombus - in a vein, and/or as the migration of this thrombus to a pulmonary
artery. It represents the third cause of death after cardio-vascular disease and cancer, and
encompass superficial, muscular and Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT), and Pulmonary Embolisms
(PE), which can be isolated or associated.
Ultrasound is today the most frequently used exam to diagnose DVT. However, it's unable to
provide information on thrombus age or cause.
Elastography is an imaging technic which aims to analyse elastic properties of a tissue, by
applying a mechanical impulse on it, and could be an interesting tool in thrombus
exploration, and provide additional information.
Proximal deep venous thrombosis of a lower limb was defined as any venous thrombosis
involving the ilio-femoral and/or femoro-popliteal axes, with or without cava thrombosis or
distal DVT.
A DVT was assumed provoked, as recommended by AFSSAPS (2009) and ACCP (2012), when there was
a major transient risk factor (surgery, prolonged immobilization ≥3 days, lower limb
fracture) in the last three months, or a persistent risk factor (Antiphospholipid syndrome,
active cancer). In case of absence of at least one of these factors, DVT was considered
unprovoked.
A DVT was supposed recent when there was no known DVT in the patient medical history.
The association with a Pulmonary Embolism was assessed by the presence of PE diagnosis in the
medical report. It had to be diagnosed following the ESC guidelines, with a thoracic CT scan
and/or a V/Q lung scan.
In this study, we analysed the shear wave's velocity (expressed in m/s).
Acquisitions were obtained during the venous ultrasound realised for the diagnosis of DVT.
All measures were made on the same ultrasonic device, with the ShearWave module.
