Clinical Trial Summary

Rporting and evaluation of the rate of recanalization of acute DVT of the lower limb at one year follow-up comparing the results of using NOACs vs. conventional treatment.


Clinical Trial Description

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important cause of disability and mortality in our society . The incidence of DVT significantly increases with age, being more prevalent in women than men . The location of DVT is also an important factor to be studied because of its association with pulmonary embolism and development of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) , Currently, duplex ultrasound scanning (DUS) is the method of choice for diagnosis of DVT because it is non-invasive, provides real-time imaging, and has high sensitivity and specificity especially for detection of proximal DVT . The new oral anticoagulants (NOACs), are poised to replace warfarin for treatment of the majority of patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE), With a rapid onset of action and the capacity to be administered in fixed doses without routine coagulation monitoring, NOACs have been shown to be noninferior to conventional anticoagulant therapy for prevention of recurrence with less bleeding. Most studies have reported that more advantages than disadvantages for NOACs when compared with VKAs, with the most important advantages of NOACs including safety issues (ie, a lower incidence of major bleeding), convenience of use, minor drug and food interactions, a wide therapeutic window, and no need for laboratory monitoring. Nonetheless, there are some conditions for which VKAs remain the drug of choice. ;
