SIR Foundation Research Consensus Panel Sets Priorities for Acute DVT Intervention Studies

SIR Foundation research consensus panel calls for standardized acute DVT intervention endpoints: biologically informed patient selection, anatomic/physiologic metrics, validated severity tools, longitudinal biomarkers, and economic/QoL measures to advance precision and reduce po…

• Endovascular thrombectomy devices remain focused on short-term venous patency, while freedom from postthrombotic syndrome requires long-term patency, reduced recurrence, and less perivenous inflammation.
• Existing DVT trial endpoints are heterogeneous and emphasize anatomic thrombus reduction without standardized physiologic, biologic, or patient-centered correlates.
• Panel prioritizes biologically informed patient selection and longitudinal biomarker integration for precision DVT research.
