Outcomes From Mechanical Thrombectomy for Deep Vein Thrombosis: Insights From the PINC AI Healthcare Database.

ABSTRACT: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is playing an increasingly important role in treating deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Although degrees of safety and efficacy have been shown in independent studies, there remains a lack of comparative evidence between MT devices. To address this, we aimed to compare demographics, clinical outcomes, and resource metrics of patients receiving MT for DVT with 3 common devices using a real-world database. Patients receiving MT for DVT between January 2018 and March 2022 were identified from the PINC AI Healthcare Database and divided into analysis populations for the AngioJet ZelanteDVT (AJ), the ClotTriever system (CT), and the Indigo system (IN). Rates of in-hospital mortality, resource utilization, and 30-day readmission were compared. Regression modeling was perfo
