Incidence of Superficial Vein Thrombosis

NCT01501175 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 848

Last updated 2013-02-13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To date, the investigators still do not know the annual incidence of Superficial Vein Thrombosis in the legs, although the investigators do know that this pathology is frequent and the investigators can assume its incidence is greater than Deep Vein Thrombosis which is of 1 to 2 cases per year per 1,000 inhabitants. Furthermore, the high percentage of SVT with concomitant DVT and Pulmonary Embolism only concerns patients seen in vascular medicine, so it is important to re-evaluate this rate on an unselected population from general practice.

Conditions

  • Superficial Vein Thrombosis

Interventions

OTHER

consultation with a vascular physician

As in usual practice, patient with suspected SVT will consult a vascular physician to diagnose SVT and eventually DVP/PE associated. Vascular physician will collect risk factors of SVT.
