A member asked:
Hi doc ..... may i know what are heart conditions we should check for in deep vein thrombosis patients and complications.... thanku ... :)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart: Heart is not typically affected in DVT and does not need to be checked, unless it is believed that a concomitant, not related, heart condition is present. Pulmonary embolism is a notorious, deadly sometimes, complication of DVT and that can cause heart strain.
