Does ATTRACT change our DVT management practice?

ABSTRACT: In 2017, the long awaited results of the ATTRACT trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine leaving the scientific community with disappointment as the study did not show the expected results. Producing not the expected outcome is not uncommon in science - furthermore, it is important to disapprove common beliefs. But has the ATTRACT trial really the power to change our practice? Are the results correct in terms of evidence based on the methods used?
