Prevention of PICC associated UEDVT – Full Text

UEDVT

“Upper limb functional exercise combined with an intelligent grip ball can reduce the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis, improve coagulation function, increase compliance with functional exercise, and improve nursing satisfaction in patients with PICCs” Bu and Wu (2025).

PICC-related thrombosis prophylaxis – Full Text

UEDVT

“The findings of this study highlight the need to improve the knowledge, attitude, and practice of nurses in PICC-related thrombosis prevention. It was observed that nurses had weak practice enthusiasm in risk factor assessment, which corresponds to the low correct rate in answering certain some risk factor assessment items of knowledge dimension” Zhang et al (2025).

Ultrasound for catheter-related thrombosis performed by intensive care nurses

UEDVT

“Another challenge for the use of vascular point-of-care ultrasound in intensive care is the diagnosis of central venous catheter-related thrombosis. It is a common problem that is often underdiagnosed. Due to the simplicity of the examination and the possible link with nursing care of inserted central venous catheters, this may be another potential diagnostic competency for critical care nurses” Stadlerova et al (2025).

Catheter-related thrombosis risk factors

UEDVT

“This review explores the epidemiology and risk factors of CR-DVT, diagnostic, prophylactic and treatment strategies, guideline recommendations, and future advances in the field, including the introduction of novel anticoagulants” King et al (2025).

PICC-RVT risk assessment – Full Text

picc

“Machine learning models that incorporate time-to-event data can effectively predict PICC-RVT risk. The DeepSurv model, in particular, shows excellent discriminative and calibration capabilities. Albumin levels, type of prefill sealant, and activated partial thromboplastin time are critical indicators for identifying and managing high-risk PICC-RVT patients” Li et al (2025).

PICC UEDVT in hospitalised surgical patients – Full Text

UEDVT

“Our study indicates that surgical inpatients are at greater risk of developing PICC-associated upper limb deep vein thrombosis (ULDVT) compared to medical inpatients, with limited evidence supporting the effectiveness of pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in reducing this risk” Li et al (2024).

Catheter-related thrombosis post CVC removal – Full Text

UEDVT

“Complications, namely, catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) and venous stenosis, are associated with non-cuffed hemodialysis catheters used for emergency vascular access. However, only a few reports have demonstrated changes in the venous lumen and intravenous thrombosis after catheter removal” Yoshida et al (2024).

Review of catheter-related thrombosis – Full Text

UEDVT

“This article provides a detailed review of CRT, focusing on clinical features, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies while addressing specific challenges in managing pacemaker and hemodialysis catheter-related thrombosis” López-Rubio et al (2024).

Catheter-related thrombosis study

UEDVT

“A known CRT risk factor is a high catheter-to-vein ratio (CVR), or a large catheter diameter with respect to the indwelling vein size. In this study, the CVR’s effect on CVC hemodynamics and its impact on CRT is investigated with in vitro and in silico experiments” Palahnuk et al (2024).

Catheter-related thrombosis in adults with cancer

UEDVT

“he rate of CRT was not associated with whether CVAD insertion was on the patient’s dominant or non-dominant side or the side of insertion. The role of inserter hand dominance requires further investigation” Hapgood et al (2024).

PICC-related thrombosis prophylaxis – Full Text

picc

“To evaluate and analyse the quality of clinical practice guidelines for Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter-related thrombosis (PICC-related thrombosis) to identify the most current and effective prophylactic measures recommended in the guidelines” Zhang et al (2024).

PICC-related venous thrombosis diagnosis – Full Text

UEDVT

“Our method excels in predicting early PICC-RVT risks, especially in asymptomatic patients. The findings in this paper offers insights into controllable PICC risk factors that could benefit vast patients and reduce disease burden through stratification and early intervention” Li et al (2024).

Catheter-related thrombosis in neonates

UEDVT

“he incidence of central venous catheter-related thrombosis and the long-term effects of thrombosis on catheterized veins in neonates is unknown. We therefore determined the incidence of central venous thrombosis, identified associated risk factors, and evaluated outcomes at 6 months” Xiong et al (2024).

Prophylaxis for UEDVT prevention

UEDVT

“The purpose of this study was to establish incidence and risk factors for UEDVT and to determine efficacy of pharmacologic prophylaxis for UEDVT prevention” Olt et al (2024).

Impact of UEDVT in pediatric cancer patients

UEDVT

“Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a well-recognized complication in pediatric cancer patients. We aimed to determine the frequency of central venous catheter (CVC) removal and survival impact of children with cancer who develop VTE” MacDonald et al (2024).
