This is a mechanism of disease flowchart for deep vein thromboses (DVT), covering the etiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and manifestations.
ADDITIONAL TAGS:
Lower extremity venous ultrasound: noncompressible obstructed vein, intraluminal hyperechoic mass, distention of affected vein. Doppler: absent/abnormal venous flow, inadequate augmentation of venous flow with distal calf compress or Valsalva
Generation of thrombus, typically in lower extremity proximal deep veins → DVT
Deep vein thrombosis

Inflammation / cell damage
Signs / symptoms
Labs / tests / imaging results

OCPs
Exposed collagen and/or endothelium damage
Accumulation of procoagulant coagulation cascade proteins
Defect or imbalance in coagulation cascade proteins
Renal loss of antithrombic factors
↑ estrogen, ↑ progesterone → ↑ prothrombin, ↑ fibrinogen, ↓ protein S
Varicose veins
Trauma
Intrinsic pathway:
[Surface contact (collagen, kallikrein, hmwk) → XIIa → XIa → IXa] + [thrombin → VIIIa]
Extrinsic pathway:
[Damage to endothelial tissue + tissue factor → IIIa] + VIIa
Common pathway:
[[X → Xa] + [thrombin → Va] → IIa → Ia] + [thrombin + XIIIa]
Stable fibrin clot
Coagulation cascade
Thrombin
Heparin, enoxaparin, fondaparinux, dabigatran
D dimer
Warfarin, phenprocoumon
Inhibit vitamin K epoxide redutase:
↓ II, VII, IX, X, C, S
Apixaban
Rivaroxaban
Alteplase
(tPA)
Plasminogen → plasmin
Swelling
Tightness
Heaviness
Dull pain (walk → worse, elevation → better)
Calf pain on dorsal flexion of the foot (Homans sign)
Fever
Patent foramen ovale
Stroke symptoms: Numb/weak extremities, confusion, speak / hear / vision deficit, etc
Stroke
Dyspnea
Chest pain
Dizziness
Weakness
DVT travels to lungs → occludes pulmonary arteries / arterioles
Pulmonary embolism
Unilateral
Bacteria
Suppurative thrombophlebitis
IV drug
