Get Moving: How Exercise Impacts Deep Vein Thrombosis

European Society for Vascular Surgery by European Society for Vascular Surgery

Episode notes

Can exercise really make a difference after deep vein thrombosis? We talk with Professor Marie José van Rijn from Erasmus University Medical Center about how physical activity can influence recovery, reduce complications like post-thrombotic syndrome, and improve quality of life. From early mobilisation to long-term exercise strategies, discover how “get moving” may change the way we manage DVT.

Join us for this insightful conversation!
