Doppler ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging technique that has been used since 1954.
It is a non-invasive, reliable tool for investigating pathologies in the venous system.
It is indicated for the diagnosis, or exclusion of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in symptomatic patients.
Whilst it may be used in patients who are asymptomatic, it is a less reliable technique and for this reason, venous ultrasound is generally reserved for patients with clinical symptoms of DVT and/or a positive serum D-dimer test result.
This module provides any overview of presenting symptoms before discussing how Doppler ultrasound findings can be used to indicate a DVT.
It is in no way intended to teach ultrasound technique but simply to give an insight into how Doppler ultrasound is used in diagnosing DVT.
It is also beyond the scope of this module discusses interventions and care of an individual diagnosed with a DVT and this discussion is reserved for a later module.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
