Summary
This study is tracking 100 patients in Japan who receive the ClotTriever device to treat severe deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The device is used to remove blood clots from deep veins. Researchers are checking how safe the device is and how well it clears the clot in everyday hospital use. The goal is to confirm the device works well after it was approved for sale in Japan.
