There is a growing need for additional cardiac and non-cardiac subspecialists, and coordination of care may be quite challenging.

We have proposed a combination proactive-reactive collaborative model with a patient's primary cardiologist, primary-care provider, and subspecialists, along with the patient and their family.

Description

Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis is a rare thrombotic disorder (1–4% of all DVT) which has the potential for considerable morbidity. We present a case which demonstrates the limitations in diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of upper extremity deep venous thrombosis. Multidetector spiral computed tomography (CT) continues to evolve as a state of the art imaging modality and our case demonstrates the role and value of multidetector spiral CT venography (CTV) in the diagnosis of upper extremity deep venous thrombosis.
