Study summary

Centers that participated in the HOKUSAI VTE trial will be invited to collect follow of previously enrolled patients at least 2 years after the index VTE.

Read the detailed description

HOKUSAI VTE trial was a randomised double blind non inferiority trial that compared the efficacy and safety of heparin ) (enoxaparin or unfractionated heparin) followed by edoxaban with heparin (enoxaparin or unfractionated heparin) followed by warfarin (target INR 2-3) in patients with acute, symptomatic VTE.

Centers that participated in the HOKUSAI VTE trial will be invited to collect follow of previously enrolled patients at least 2 years after the index VTE.

patients with index DVT will be asked to complete the SF-36 and PembQoL questionnaire to assess the (venous disease-specific) quality of life.

The Villalta score will be used to assess PTS. The objectively and subjectively obtained Villalta score- known as the patient reported Villalta -will be compared .

Among patients with with an index PE, the QoL will be assessed bu the validated generic (SF-36) and DVT at index will be examined for PTS and will be asked to complete all questionnaire.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. cumulative incidence of PTS in patients with an acute DVT

    PTS is defined by a Villalta index \>5 or the presence of venous ulcer

    Time frame: 2 years

  2. PE related quality of life

    questionnaire SF 36

    Time frame: 2 years after the index PE
