Patient cohort
Our medical record query resulted in 32 total patients. Of those
patients, 3 were excluded from analysis as they involved upper extremity
thromboses. The remaining 29 patients had thromboses that involved veins
of the LEs and/or IVC. Of the 29 patients that met inclusion criteria,
22 received overnight catheter-directed tPA via an indwelling venous
catheter and 7 received “on-table” tPA as bolus dosing during the
interventional procedure without additional CDT or tPA following
completion of the procedure. Patient demographics and characteristics
are listed in Table 1 .
