Catheter Guided DVT Thrombolysis

Catheter Guided DVT Thrombolysis

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition characterized by the formation of a blood clot in the deep veins of the body, typically in the legs. The clot can obstruct the normal flow of blood and may lead to serious complications such as pulmonary embolism and post-thrombotic syndrome.

Catheter-guided DVT thrombolysis is a procedure that uses a catheter (a thin tube) to deliver a clot-dissolving medication directly to the site of the clot. The goal of this procedure is to break up the clot and restore normal blood flow.

During the procedure, a catheter is inserted into a vein, usually in the leg, and guided to the site of the clot. The clot-dissolving medication is then delivered through the catheter. The procedure is typically performed in a hospital setting and can take several hours to complete.

Catheter-guided DVT thrombolysis is considered a safe and effective treatment option for DVT, and it may be used in addition to other treatments such as anticoagulant medication and compression stockings.

It's important to note that the procedure may have potential risks such as bleeding, infection, and allergic reactions. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine the best treatment option for your individual needs and goals.
