Clearing the Clot

CLEARING THE CLOT

HELPING BRING CLARITY TO DVT

Did you know that presence of a blood clot may put you at risk for long-term complications?

GOING BEYOND TRADITIONAL DVT TREATMENTS


If you’ve been diagnosed with a DVT blood clot, you want to do everything you can to take charge of your condition. That starts by taking blood thinners as prescribed and wearing compression socks to help reduce the chance that a portion of your clot breaks off and travels to other parts of your body.

These treatments are a critical part of treating DVT. But they won’t remove or dissolve the clot and may not relieve your symptoms. Some patients may be candidates for treatments designed to also relieve their symptoms and reduce their risk for long-term DVT complications.
