2020年9月30日 · Recommendations codify the use of duplex ultrasound for the diagnosis of EHIT. Risk factor assessments and methods of prevention including mechanical prophylaxis, chemical prophylaxis, and ablation distance are discussed. Treatment guidelines are tailored to the AVF EHIT class (ie, I, II, III, IV).

2021年1月1日 · Treatment guidelines are tailored to the AVF EHIT class (ie, I, II, III, IV). Reference is made to the use of surveillance, antiplatelet therapy, and anticoagulants as deemed indicated, and the recommendations incorporate the use of the novel direct oral anticoagulants.

Endothermal heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT) refers to the propagation of thrombus into the deep vein contiguous with a superficial vein that has been ablated with endothermal methods 1 including radiofrequency (RFA) and endovenous laser ablation (EVLA). Unlike deep venous thrombosis (DVT), EHIT is a unique entity that has a distinctive ...

Propagation of a thrombus from a superficial vein into a deeper vein post endovenous thermal ablation is called endothermal heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT). It is generally considered clinically insignificant if the thrombus does not propagate to the deep venous system.

2020年9月29日 · We suggest no treatment of EHIT II but do suggest weekly surveillance until thrombus resolution. In high-risk patients, consideration may be given to antiplatelet therapy vs prophylactic or therapeutic anticoagulation with weekly surveillance.

The American Venous Forum (AVF) and the Society for Vascular Surgery set forth these guidelines for the management of endothermal heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT). The guidelines serve to compile the body of literature on EHIT and to put forth evidence-based recommendations. The guidelines are divided …

2014年1月27日 · EHIT appears to behave differently than a spontaneous occurring deep vein thrombus (DVT) and may be an ultrasound finding without clinical significance. However, Center for Vein Restoration, all patients presently undergo post endovenous ablation procedure duplex imaging within 2-7 days per protocol to identify an EHIT or DVT potentially ...
