Superficial Vein Thrombosis: Gregory Piazza Leads JAMA Review Addressing An Underrecognized Challenge
Gregory Piazza, Director of the Vascular Medicine Section at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, posted on LinkedIn:
”Superficial vein thrombosis is a challenging venous thromboembolic disorder because of the paucity of randomized controlled trial data and limited guidance in the literature. Despite this, the patient burden is high. Accordingly, clinicians are often left to “fend for themselves”. Very proud of this review in JAMA from my research team that gives clinicians and patients some pathways forward. Our research fellow and a first year medical student at Tufts, Darsiya Krishnathasan, started this as her undergraduate thesis. An incredible effort with amazing guidance from my colleague, Dr. Behnood Bikdeli. ”
