Computational Analysis of the Related Factors of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Formation in Patients Undergoing Hip Fracture Surgery

Abstract

A retrospective study was conducted on 51 patients undergoing hip fracture surgery to investigate the factors associated with the formation of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). The independent sample t-test and correlation analysis were used to sort out and analyze the data. The findings are as follows. (1) Different gender samples showed significant differences in the Caprini score and thrombus location. Most DVTs in females are located in the posterior tibial vein and intermuscular veins. The Caprini score of females was significantly higher than that of males. (2) Age displays a positive correlation with DVT, coronary heart disease, hypertension, and different surgical types, respectively. (3) There is a correlation between age and operation duration. (4) Hyperlipidemia and cerebrovascular disease show a positive correlation with DVT. (5) There was a significant negative correlation between the Caprini score and the quantification of D-dimer. This indicates that in this sample, the higher the patients’ Caprini score is, the lower the quantitation of D-dimer will be. (6) Hyperlipidemia and cardiac insufficiency show a positive correlation with cerebrovascular disease. Patients with hyperlipidemia and cardiac insufficiency may also suffer from cerebrovascular diseases.

The association between admission mean corpuscular volume and preoperative deep venous thrombosis in geriatrics hip fracture: a retrospective study

“…This is the first retrospective study on the association between admission MCV and preoperative DVT in geriatrics with hip fractures. Previous studies suggested age, sex, hyperlipidemia, dementia, movement disorder, bedridden time, diabetes, pulmonary disease, d-dimer, and kidney disease as risk factors for developing DVT after fractures [ 9 , 21 – 24 ]. Meantime, many studies have found that laboratory indicators of blood routine, such as RDW (red cell distribution width), blood monocyte count, and hematocrit, were risk factors for postoperative deep vein thrombosis in patients with hip fracture [ 25 – 27 ].…”

Effect of Low Molecular Weight Heparin on Prevention and Treatment of Deep Venous Thrombosis in Elderly Patients With Hip Fracture After Operation

“…It is observed a significant increase in DVT incidence in the control group compared with the treatment group (p < 0.05) (Table II). Currently, the main clinical prevention methods for DVT are anticoagulant drugs and early functional exercise [21][22][23]. LMWH is one of the most used anticoagulant drugs in clinical practice, which not only stimulates the release of plasminogen activator from vascular endothelium, but also accelerates fibrinolysis to reduce the agglutination of red blood cells as well as PLT in the blood [24].…”
