- Most regimens involve DOAC therapy e.g. apixaban for 3–6 months
- Proximal DVT - thrombus is present in the popliteal (and its trifurcation) or a more proximal vein
- Distal DVT - thrombus only occurs in the tibial, peroneal, gastrocnemius and soleal veins
- THANZ venous thromboembolism guidelines state that:
- Proximal DVT or PE caused by major surgery or trauma that is no longer present requires OACs for 3 months
- Proximal DVT or PE that is unprovoked or associated with a transient (non-surgical) risk factor requires OACs for 3–6 months
