US review March 9, 2011

US review March 9, 2011. Rule out DVT. If the vein completely compresses there is no underlying clot. no clot. clot. Linear Array Probe (5-10 mHz). Patient reclines at 45 o Hip externally rotated. Note: SFV – “superficial” femoral vein is a deep vein!. Just 2 key areas to compress.

  1. US reviewMarch 9, 2011

  2. Rule out DVT

  3. If the vein completely compresses there is no underlying clot.

  4. no clot clot

  5. Linear Array Probe (5-10 mHz)

  6. Patient reclines at 45o Hip externally rotated

  7. Note: SFV – “superficial” femoral vein is a deep vein!

  8. Just 2 key areas to compress

  9. Our protocol: 4 compression clips CF-saph bifurcation pop “trifurcation”

  10. A normal exam:

  11. Clip #1 CF-saph

  12. CFV – G. Saphenous Junction

  13. Clip #2 bifurcation

  14. Bifurcation: SFV and DFV

  15. Clip #3 pop

  16. Pop V

  17. Clip #4 “trifurcation”

  18. “trifurcation”: pop divides

  19. Some clots:

  20. DVT in CFV

  21. Clip: partially occlusive DVT

  22. movie: mobile DVT

  23. movie: DVT in CFV

  24. Movie: DVT in pop

  25. Chronic DVTs look different

  26. shrunken fibrotic (hyperechoic) collaterals recanalized Chronic DVT

  27. clip: lymph node

  28. The exam is simple!

  29. Stuff you don’t have to know:

  30. You can skip: the mid-thigh the calf Doppler

  31. mid-thigh: SFV

  32. Calf veins: OK to skip

  33. Calf DVTs - Unreliable to diagnose: < 70% sensitivity - Unclear significance: 75% resolve without treatment

  34. But what if you find a calf DVT? Plan A: anticoagulate Plan B: ASA only. Monitor for extension (Not all calf veins are equally important)

  35. Clip: calf veins

  36. Is Doppler needed? No. Compression is sufficient. Color can sometimes help identify vessels. Doppler can give false normals: eg non-occlusive DVT has normal augmentation.

  37. Doppler flow info: Augmentation: - squeeze the calf and blood rushes past the probe - implies no obstruction between calf and probe Respiratory phasicity: • - flow stops on inhale, goes on exhale • - implies no obstruction up in pelvis

  38. Venous flow (note respirations)

  39. phasic flow and augmentation

  40. What is “duplex”? 2 modalities together: U/S + Doppler
