Diagnostic value of single complete compression ultrasonography in pregnant and postpartum women with suspected deep vein thrombosis: prospective study

Tue, 24 April 2012 12:00:00 +0100

In this prospective study of 216 pregnant and postpartum women the rate of venous thromboembolic events after single complete compression ultrasonography seemed to be within the range observed in studies in non-pregnant women. These data suggest that a negative single complete compression ultrasonography result may safely exclude the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis in this setting, say the authors.

For nulliparous low risk women, planned birth at home is still likely to be the most cost effective option but is associated with an increase in adverse perinatal outcomes.
