Abstract

The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is known higher in cancer patients and lower incidence in the east country. This study was conducted in order to check the incidence rate of VTE in the Korean high risk patients who are treated in the intensive care unit (ICU), and to verify the correlation of the incidence of VTE and prophylaxis methods. This study was conducted as a retrospective study for 492 cancer patients from April 2011 to December 2014. According to the medical records of subjects, their prophylaxis methods and the incidence of VTE were surveyed and then correlation of them was investigated with statistical methods. 385 patients met the inclusion criteria. VTE occrred in 17 of them (4.4%). The prophylaxis methods are consisted of medical method (136 subjects), mechnical method(33 subjects), and medical & mechnkcal method (124 subjects). VTE occurred in 14 patients (4.8%) from 293 patients (76%) who were given at least one prophylaxis method. From all of 93 patients without prophylaxis, three patients experienced VTE (3.3%). The target patients were high risk in VTE, but the incidence rate of VTE was lower than reported in previous studies. The reason of this is considered that more active prophylaxis intervention was applied to the subjects because of their high risk status. As a result, it is considered that in the high risk patients, it would be effective to apply active and complex prophylaxis intervention for the prevention of VTE.
