PTS is a chronic consequence of DVT, happening despite appropriate acute management. It affects 20% to 50% of patients within 2 years of DVT diagnosis, with severe forms in 5–10%. The condition usually involves the same limb affected by the original thrombosis, and symptoms may emerge shortly after the acute event or be delayed by months or even years.

Werfen is committed to Powering Patient Care and raising global awareness of thrombosis to enhance patient outcomes.
