Why the study?
Does the presence of thrombophilia affect the clinical features and recurrence rate of deep vein thrombosis?
Does the presence of thrombophilia affect the clinical features and recurrence rate of deep vein thrombosis?
Patients with thrombophilia experience DVT at a younger age and have a higher recurrence rate when off anticoagulation, suggesting that long-term warfarin therapy is beneficial for secondary prevention in this population.
Thrombophilia was associated with earlier DVT onset and higher recurrence; leaves open whether extended anticoagulation improves outcomes in this population.
