AngioJet for new leg vein clots
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a special device called AngioJet to remove fresh blood clots from the large veins in your leg or pelvis. The goal is to see if it helps prevent long-term damage like leg swelling or pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a new (acute) blood clot in the large veins of your leg or pelvis.
- Your doctor expects you to live more than one year from now.
- You cannot have had a prior blood clot in the same leg (no recurrent DVT).
- The veins where the catheter will go must be at least 6 mm wide (about the size of a pencil).
- You must not have severe kidney disease, allergy to contrast dye, or be pregnant.

This study tests a device called JETi® that uses a tiny jet of fluid to break up and remove blood clots in leg arteries. It may help people with sudden or recent leg artery blockages improve blood flow and avoid more serious complications.
This trial compares different mechanical devices used to remove recent blood clots from the deep veins in your leg (iliac and femoral veins). The goal is to restore blood flow and prevent long-term complications like chronic pain and swelling.
This study tests a treatment approach for acute blood clots in the deep veins of the upper leg and groin. It aims to see if using a device to clear the clot after standard treatment improves recovery.
This trial tests whether placing a stent (a small mesh tube) in the iliac vein can help heal chronic leg ulcers caused by prior blood clots. The goal is to improve blood flow and reduce symptoms.
