Abstract

The management of deep vein thrombosis is becoming more specific in terms of diagnostic methods and drug treatments. The use of the dichotomous Wells' score is now established. The indications for direct oral anticoagulants have expanded. Prevention and management of the post-thrombotic syndrome are based on compression socks. Their use is individualized and needs repeated assessments in time. This article presents the latest developments and outlines principles involved in the management of superficial, distal and deep vein thrombosis in primary care.
