Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The efficacy and safety of anticoagulant treatment is not established for patients with acute symptomatic isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT). The latest Antithrombotic Therapy for VTE Disease Guideline suggested using the same anticoagulation as for patients with acute proximal DVT in patients with acute IDDVT. However, a single-center retrospective cohort study found therapeutic anticoagulation was associated with an increase risk of bleeding. Thus, this study aimed to assess the short-term risk of recurrent venous thrombotic events and bleeding events in patients with a first acute symptomatic IDDVT of the leg treated with prophylactic or therapeutic anticoagulant therapy with rivaroxaban.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Radiographically confirmed recurrent venous thromboembolism [6 months]

    Recurrent venous thromboembolism includes proximal extension of isolated distal DVT, new contralateral proximal DVT and pulmonary embolism.

  2. Major or clinically relevant non-major bleeding events [3 months]

    Major bleeding events are defined according to the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis criteria. Clinically relevant non-major bleeding events refer to which do not meet the mentioned criteria of major bleeding but need at least an unscheduled in-person consultant.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Individual component of primary outcomes (e.g. proximal extension, major bleeding) [6 months]

    Individual component of primary outcomes, including proximal extension of isolated distal DVT, new contralateral proximal DVT, new pulmonary embolism, major bleeding events, clinically relevant non-major bleeding events.

  2. Residual vein occlusion [6 months]

  3. Post-thrombotic syndrome [6 months]

  4. All-cause death [6 months]
