摘要: Background: Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) are common venous access devices. Clinical conditions and therapies that increase the risk of PICC-associated thrombosis have not been studied. Methods: We performed a retrospective case-control analysis all adult patients who underwent placement PICC at our hospital over three-year period (n = 1296). variables examined were indication for placement, active cancer treatment, history DVT, diabetes mellitus, use prophylactic anticoagulation. Results: The overall incidence DVT was 2% 27). Active therapy significantly associated with (OR 3.5, 95% CI 1.3-9.8). anticoagulation did reduce this risk. Conclusions: Patients suffered more likely to be undergoing treatment cancer. This lowered by These results suggest need prospective studies on effective high DVT.
