BRIGHAM AND WOMEN’S HOSPITAL With All the New Drugs, This is How I Treat Acute DVT and Superficial Phlebitis Gregory Piazza, MD, MS Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Brigham and Women’s Hospital April 20, 2018 TRG HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL TEACHING AFFILIATE Thrombosis Research Group Disclosures • BMS- grant/research support • Daichii-Sankyo- grant/research support • BTG/EKOS- grant/research support • Janssen- grant/research support • Bayer- scientific advisory panel • Portola- scientific advisory panel TRG Thrombosis Research Group 1

  2. A 55-year-old woman with acute left leg swelling and pain • She recently underwent left knee arthroscopy for a partial medial meniscus tear. • She initially noted left knee swelling and pain but subsequently found the symptoms extended to her ankle. • She suspected it was typical for knee surgery and self-prescribed bed rest. TRG Thrombosis Research Group A 55-year-old woman with acute left leg swelling and pain • Her medical history was remarkable for obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, GERD, and obstructive sleep apnea. • Her medications included metformin, lisinopril, atorvastatin, omeprazole, and ibuprofen. • She was a 1-pack-per-day smoker and worked as a telemarketer. TRG Thrombosis Research Group 2

  3. A 55-year-old woman with acute left leg swelling and pain • On physical examination, she was afebrile with a blood pressure of 128/72 mmHg, heart rate of 77 bpm, and oxygen saturation of 99% on RA. • She had 2+ pitting edema from her left ankle to lower thigh and trace edema on the right. • Her left leg was slightly erythematous and tender to palpation. TRG Thrombosis Research Group A 55-year-old woman with acute left leg swelling and pain • Because of the high L FV suspicion for DVT, the patient was referred directly for venous ultrasound. • Venous ultrasound demonstrated left femoral and popliteal DVT.

  7. Contraindication Checklist for Home-Therapy of Acute DVT High Thrombotic Load • Massive DVT (iliofemoral) • Concomitant PE Increased Risk of Bleeding • Active bleeding or bleeding disorder (thrombocytopenia) • Advanced renal or liver disease Special Populations • Body weight <45 kg or >100 kg • Advanced elderly, pediatric patients, or pregnant women Symptom Control • Pain • Difficulty ambulating Concomitant Medical Disorder Requiring Admission TRG Thrombosis Research Group Beware May-Thurner Syndrome • Compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery • Most common in young women • May present as a iliofemoral DVT or as chronic venous insufficiency TRG Fazel R, et al.

  11. A 55-year-old woman with acute left proximal DVT provoked by surgery • The patient was discharged from the office on oral rivaroxaban 15 mg twice daily for 3 weeks and then 20 mg daily for a total of 6 months. • She was recommended to use compression stockings, 30-40 mmHg, thigh-high. • In follow-up, her symptoms resolved quickly and she had no further venous thromboembolic events. TRG Thrombosis Research Group A 62-year-old man with varicose veins and leg pain • The patient had long-standing varicose vein bilaterally but never thought to seek medical attention. • He noted a tender firm “cord-like” mass behind his left knee that felt warm to the touch. • His medical history was only significant for hypertension for which he took HCTZ. TRG Thrombosis Research Group 11

  12. A 62-year-old man with varicose veins and leg pain • On physical examination, the patient had a tender, erythematous cord extending superficially through his popliteal fossa. • He had numerous severe varicose veins bilaterally. • A venous ultrasound confirmed superficial vein thrombosis and no DVT.

  14. Rivaroxaban vs. Fondaparinux for Superficial Vein Thrombosis: SURPRISE • Prospective, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial of superficial vein thrombosis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10 mg rivaroxaban daily compared to fondaparinux 2.5 mg once daily for 45 days. • A combined efficacy endpoint will evaluate thrombus progression, SVT recurrence, DVT, PE and death. • Safety end point will focus on major and clinically- relevant non-major bleeding. TRG Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01499953 Thrombosis Research Group A 62-year-old man with varicose veins and superficial vein thrombosis • The patient was prescribed 45 days of low-dose fondaparinux 2.5 mg daily with excellent relief of symptoms and no recurrent events. • He was also prescribed compression stockings thigh- high, 30-40 mmHg but found them difficult to wear. • He was eventually referred for consideration of endovenous laser ablation given his episode of superficial vein thrombosis.
