A lot of people, health professionals and the public, have concerns about Foam entering the deep veins and causing a DVT. Turns out, DVT is very rare In a study by Parsi et al, Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) occurred in 7 out of 9,143 procedures, which translates to an incidence rate of 0.07%. That’s a tiny fraction, the risk of DVT is very low! I made a video kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4HEnIqhjs2SZtUsi=3flxoYJVQu0k2syW and you can read the Parsi paper journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0268355519873534
