2020年9月30日 · All patients demonstrated complete thrombus resolution by 7 weeks. A more contemporary report supports the use of antiplatelet therapy with 7 to 10 days of aspirin for class II EHIT, acknowledging a 3% incidence of thrombus propagation with this approach that was clinically insignificant (thrombus remained class II).

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 abla-tion distance are discussed. Treatment guidelines are tailored to …

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 …

2021年1月1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).

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 ...

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, …

2020年9月29日 · We suggest treatment with therapeutic anticoagulation for EHIT III, weekly surveillance, and cessation of treatment after thrombus retraction or resolution to the saphenofemoral (GSV) or saphenopopliteal (SSV) junction.

2020年9月28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...

2019年1月1日 · This figure is a representative example of an endothermal heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT) 3, highlighting the variability in the natural history of this pathology. Thrombus persisted at the terminal valve for 3 months postendothermal ablation and ultimately warranted surgical removal.

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.
