Monitoring DVT treatment with a new skin sensor
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new, non-invasive skin sensor that uses electrical currents to see how well clot-busting medication is working in people with deep vein thrombosis (a blood clot in the leg). The goal is to make monitoring easier and more comfortable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in one of your legs.
- Your doctor has decided that you are a candidate for catheter-directed thrombolysis (a procedure that delivers clot-busting medicine directly to the clot).
- You are willing and able to give your informed consent to participate.
- You do not have injured skin in the area where the sensor will be placed.

This study follows adults who may have a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism) or leg (deep vein thrombosis), or who were found to have a clot by chance. It aims to improve how doctors diagnose, manage, and estimate risk, which may lead to better, more tailored care for you.
This study tests a device that removes blood clots from the deep veins of your leg. It's designed to help people with recent or slightly older clots in the thigh or pelvic area, aiming to reduce symptoms and prevent complications.
This study tracks how well the Cleaner Vac® system works to remove blood clots from leg veins over time. It may be an option for people with new or recent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) who are getting their first treatment.
This study tests a skin-measurement method (bioimpedance) to monitor how venous leg ulcers heal while using standard compression therapy. It may help the study team track healing sooner and more accurately so treatment can be adjusted if needed.
This trial tests a wearable ultrasound sensor that can be stuck to the skin to monitor your heart, leg blood clots, or vital signs in the ICU. It may replace bulky machines and let doctors see your condition more easily and continuously.
This trial tests a new computer tool that helps doctors decide whether you likely have a blood clot in your leg or lung. If you have symptoms and are not already on blood thinners, you may be able to join.
