Can a tiny device suction out dangerous blood clots?
NCT ID NCT07749820
First seen Aug 06, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing a device designed to remove blood clots from the deep veins of the legs, a condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The study will enroll about 167 adults with acute or subacute DVT to see if the device can safely and effectively clear the blockage. Participants will be followed for six months to monitor their recovery and any potential complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Peripheral thrombectomy system (a device to remove blood clots from veins)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could offer a minimally invasive way to clear DVT clots, potentially reducing pain, swelling, and the risk of long-term complications.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage trial, so the device may not work as well as hoped or could have risks like bleeding, infection, or damage to the vein. More research is needed to confirm its safety and effectiveness.
