However, previous evidence failed to validate the effectiveness of PMT in reducing the incidence of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). To address this controversy, the reformation study aims to improve rheolytic thrombectomy for acute DVT of the lower limb through primary popliteal vein thrombosis clearance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method and analysis<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Reformation is a prospective randomised multicentre trial. It has 160 patients in two groups: the modified access group (80 patients) and the traditional access group (80 patients). The purpose of this study is to assess whether the modified access approach for removing inflow thrombus in a one-stage procedure is more effective in enhancing the success rate of the procedure and reducing the incidence of PTS during a 24-month follow-up period, for patients with acute whole limb DVT.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Ethics and dissemination<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The reformation study has been registered at\n                      <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"uri\" xlink:href=\"www.clinicaltrials.gov\">www.clinicaltrials.gov<\/jats:ext-link>\n                      .
