深静脉血栓的护理

Nursing Care of Deep Vein Thrombosis

上肢和下肢深静脉血栓形成(DVT, deep vein thrombosis)定义为受影响四肢深静脉内的血栓。这些血栓既可以自发发生,也可以与特定的危险因素有关。无论原因如何,DVT都与显着的发病率和死亡率相关,并有可能导致致命的并发症。最显着的并发症是下肢深静脉血栓形成肺栓塞。正如研究报告的那样,超过90%的急性肺栓塞来自近端深静脉。静脉血栓栓塞还与医疗保健系统和个体患者的重大经济负担有关。在本文中,我们回顾了上肢和下肢DVT,包括危险因素、体征和症状、诊断和治疗。

Upper and lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is defined as a blood clot in the deep veins of the affected extremities. These blood clots can either occur spontaneously or be associated with specific risk factors. Regardless of the cause, DVT is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and has the potential to lead to fatal complications. The most significant complication is deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities and pulmonary embolism. As reported in the study, more than 90% of acute pulmonary embolisms originate from the proximal deep veins. Venous thromboembolism is also associated with a significant financial burden on the healthcare system and individual patients. In this article, we review upper and lower extremity DVT, including risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
