Post Thrombotic Syndrome Prevention Study
This is a two arm, prospective, single center, randomized clinical trial. Subjects will be randomly assigned into one of two groups using block randomization technique in a 1:1 ratio. The control group will receive care using elastic compression stocking and the intervention group will use the ACTitouch device. Stratified randomization will occur based on whether the Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) has iliac or non-iliac involvement. Subjects will be followed for 2 years with clinic visits occurring at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.

• History of an acute proximal unilateral leg DVT diagnosed one or more months prior to enrollment, or diagnosed with a chronic proximal unilateral leg DVT at time of enrollment, on duplex or other imaging study (i.e MRV, CTV, venogram)
• Current anticoagulation therapy
• Physical ability to independently don ACTitouch or availability of help to place device
