This clinical content conforms to AAFP criteria for continuing medical education (CME). Focusing on protocols and equipment, this popular, practical handbook explains how to perform all current interventional radiologic procedures. Highlights of this edition include new information on radiofrequency ablation. Upper extremity DVT primarily involves brachial, axillary, and subclavian veins. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurs less often in children than adults and therefore remains underrecognized despite increasing in incidence. Validated clinical decision rules have been used to stratify the risk of VTE to determine whether to initiate diagnostic testing. Copyright © 2019 by the American Academy of Family Physicians.

A 45-year-old female with a history of cellulitis requiring peripheral inserted central catheter (PICC) line placement for intravenous antibiotics presents two weeks after line removal with persistent, dull, aching pain in her right shoulder and difficulty removing the rings on her right hand. These recommendations assume that highly sensitive d-dimer results can be obtained in a timely manner and that the inconvenience and cost of d-dimer testing are acceptable to patients because additional diagnostic testing may be avoided. Suboptimal conditions may require repeat d-dimer testing. The Wells score has been validated in inpatient and outpatient populations, whereas the Geneva score was validated only in an outpatient population and the Constans score was validated only in an inpatient population.
