Summary

This study looks at whether a catheter-based procedure can help people with long-term leg pain, swelling, or ulcers caused by old blood clots in the deep veins. About 225 adults with disabling symptoms will either get the procedure plus standard care or standard care alone. The goal is to see if the procedure improves symptoms and quality of life.
