2018年4月3日 · Venous ultrasound is the standard imaging test for patients suspected of having lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT). However, there is disagreement among authoritative groups regarding the necessary components of the venous ultrasound.

An unrecognized or untreated Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in the lower extremities is a major concern because a clot can dislodge and lead to a pulmonary embolism and hemodynamic instability. Point of Care Compression Ultrasound is a quick and non-invasive way to assess for DVT with very high sensitivity and specificity so you can determine if ...

Complete duplex ultrasound (CDUS) is the preferred venous ultrasound protocol for diagnosis of acute DVT, with pooled sensitivity and specificity to be 94% and 97.3% respectively, which involves compression of deep veins from inguinal ligament to the ankle and doppler waveforms in common femoral and popliteal vein [1].

2014年2月25日 · Lower-extremity venous duplex ultrasound (VDUS) with B-mode compression maneuvers and Doppler evaluation was performed, and she was found to have an acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the left leg that extended from …

A bedside ultrasound was conducted to assess for DVT with clinical indications of edema and pain. The extremity was assessed at 3 locations – common femoral vein, saphenofemoral junction, and the popliteal vein.

2024年12月31日 · About half of patients with PE had US evidence of LE DVT. Overall, 55.4% of the patients in this study had symptomatic PE, while the remainder were incidentally diagnosed and asymptomatic. Patients with coincident LE DVT were older, heavier, more often male, and less often experienced a provoked event (74.0% vs 86.4%).

2023年8月8日 · Review the clinically significant differences between an upper extremity deep venous thrombosis and a lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. Outline the methods for using an ultrasound examination to identify an upper extremity deep venous thrombosis versus a lower extremity deep venous thrombosis.

2014年3月5日 · With the introduction of ultrasound (US) in the 1980s, and the subsequent universal adoption of US as the initial imaging examination of choice for suspected LE or UE DVT, LE venography is almost never done for diagnosis alone, but is used in conjunction with therapeutic procedures, and has occasional use for upper extremity and central ...
