NCT ID NCT07622212

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compares two medical devices used to remove large blood clots from the leg veins. About 180 adults with acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) will receive either the ClotTriever System or an aspiration device. The goal is to see which device clears clots better and reduces the risk of post-thrombotic syndrome, a condition causing chronic leg pain and swelling.
