ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called the Ongoing Registry of Deep Venous Reconstructions, is looking at how effective certain treatments are for patients with blockage in their deep veins, specifically in areas like the femoral vein and iliac veins. The treatments being studied include a procedure known as percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), where a small balloon is used to open up the blocked vein, as well as the placement of a stent to keep the vein open. Some patients may also undergo a surgical procedure to remove blockages.

To be eligible for this trial, participants must have a blockage in one of the targeted veins, but they cannot have a life expectancy of less than one year or be unable to tolerate blood-thinning medications. This study is currently recruiting participants of all ages and genders. Those who join the trial can expect to receive one of these treatments and will be monitored throughout the process to see how well it helps improve their condition. It's an important opportunity to contribute to the understanding and improvement of treatments for venous thrombosis.
