1. 1. Studies on venous function after deep venous thrombosis

   Författare :Lena M Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :venous plethysmography;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is estimated to be about 1-2/1000 per year of which approximately 4 % are located in the arm veins. Some of the most important late effects of a DVT are chronic venous dysfunction and the development of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a vascular disease with an incidence of approximately 140 cases per 100,000 person-years in adults. The incidence of VTE has increased over the last decades, and more than 20% of affected individuals die in the first year after diagnosis. LÄS MER

4. 3. Clinical probability assessment and biochemical markers in the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis

   Författare :Johan Elf; Malmö Klinisk koagulationsmedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Venous thrombosis; APC-PCI complex.; D-Dimer; Clinical probability; Diagnosis;

   Sammanfattning : The combination of pre-test clinical probability assessment and D-dimer test is now widely applied in the diagnostic process of DVT. The general objective of the present investigation was to validate these results in a Swedish routine emergency setting were the prevalence of the disease is high and were the clinical probability assessment was handled by many junior physicians.

5. 4. Venous thromboembolism. Aspects on risk factors, diagnostic tools and treatment with thrombin inhibition

   Författare :Karin Wåhlander; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :deep vein thrombosis; pulmonary embolism; venous thromboembolism; Factor V Leiden; prothrombin gene G20210A; thrombin inhibition; ximelagatran; melagatran; PT; APTT; D-dimer.;

   Sammanfattning : Venous thromboembolism (VTE), comprising deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a multifactorial disease. The aims of the present thesis were to investigate Factor V Leiden and prothrombin G20210A mutations as potential risk factors for VTE during and after major surgery, to compare different D-dimer assays and evaluate their usefulness in the diagnosis of DVT, to investigate clinical effects, safety and pharmacokinetic properties of an oral thrombin inhibitor (ximelagatran) when treating VTE and finally to investigate the usefulness of coagulation assays (APTT and PT) during treatment with thrombin inhibition.

7. 5. Treatment of deep vein thrombosis and risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism

   Författare :Per Lindmarker; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Deep vein thrombosis; pulmonary embolism; low molecular mass heparin; therapy; outpatients; recurrent; risk factors; APC-resistance; factor V G1691A; prothrombin G20210A; side;

   Sammanfattning : A cute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are different clinical presentations of the same underlying disease, namely venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is a common and potentially fatal condition. Risk factors associated with the first and probably also subsequent events of VTE are hereditary or acquired. LÄS MER
