Key Facts about Venous Thromboembolism

In the medical field, while surgery can solve many diseases, postoperative recovery is crucial. Each year, 310 million major surgeries occur globally, with an estimated 15% resulting in serious postoperative complications, many of which are preventable. Reducing these can save countless lives and billions in medical costs.

Venous thromboembolism is a common postoperative complications. After surgery, especially for high-risk patients, long-term bed rest or the surgery itself can greatly increase the risk of blood clots in the lower extremities' deep veins.

Thus, preventing venous thromboembolism is essential for surgical patients.

Beware of the Invisible Killer--Venous Thromboembolism

Venous thromboembolism (VTE)is a disease in which the blood coagulates abnormally in the veins, causing blockage of the blood vessels and then leading to a series of pathophysiological changes and clinical symptoms.

What is the Venous Thromboembolism?

Venous thromboembolism (VTE)is a disease in which the blood coagulates abnormally in the veins, causing blockage of the blood vessels and then leading to a series of pathophysiological changes and clinical symptoms.

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

Blood coagulates abnormally in deep veins, blocking them and causing venous return problems. It often happens in lower limb deep veins like the femoral and popliteal veins and can also occur in pelvic and upper limb deep veins. After DVT forms, the affected limb may have swelling, pain, tenderness, warmer skin, and color changes. If the thrombus detaches, it can flow to the lungs and cause pulmonary embolism.

Pulmonary Embolism (PE)

A thrombus from the venous system or right heart blocks the pulmonary artery or its branches, disrupting pulmonary circulation and respiratory function. PE symptoms vary, including dyspnea, chest pain, hemoptysis, syncope, etc. Mild cases may just have mild shortness of breath and cough, while severe ones can quickly lead to respiratory failure, shock, or even death.

What Does Thrombosis Feel Like?

Symptoms of deep vein thrombosis usually include swelling, pain, redness, and fever. Patients may feel heaviness and distension in one limb, or even pain when walking. In some cases, deep vein thrombosis may be asymptomatic, especially in the early stages, which increases the hiddenness and danger of the disease because patients may not know that they have thrombosis.

Swelling

Deep vein thrombosis causes obstruction of the deep veins of the lower limbs, obstruction of blood return, causing local congestion and edema, resulting in obvious swelling of the affected limb.

Pain

The affected limb will feel heavy or unbearable pain, especially when walking or standing, and the pain will be slightly relieved after rest.The affected limb will feel heavy or unbearable pain, especially when walking or standing, and the pain will be slightly relieved after rest.

Inflammatory

Deep vein thrombosis causes local inflammatory reactions, and the skin of the affected area may have symptoms such as redness, swelling, and fever, sometimes accompanied by redness of the skin or local hardening.

Muscle Tension

The muscles of the affected limb will feel tense and stiff, and the movement will be limited. In severe cases, it may affect normal walking.

Palpitations & Dyspnea

If a deep vein thrombosis breaks off and causes pulmonary embolism (PE), the patient may experience symptoms such as palpitations and dyspnea, which may be life-threatening in severe cases.

What is the Main Cause of Venous Thromboembolism?

Surgery affects the normal physiological state of the body in multiple aspects, and these factors act together to increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis formation.

Long-term bed rest during surgery

During the operation, the patient needs to stay in bed for a long time, which will lead to insufficient activity of the lower limb muscles, slow blood flow, and increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis.

Limited activity during postoperative recovery

Many surgeries require patients to rest and avoid strenuous activities, which can also lead to poor blood circulation and promote the formation of deep vein thrombosis.

Surgical trauma and inflammatory response

Trauma and tissue damage during surgery can cause inflammatory response in the body, promote blood coagulation, and increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis.

Effects of anesthetic drugs

Anesthetic drugs used in surgery may cause abnormal blood coagulation function and increase the formation of deep vein thrombosis.

Postoperative venous puncture and infusion

Venous puncture and infusion may be required after surgery. These operations may damage the venous lining, promote blood coagulation, and lead to the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis.

How Do You Diagnose Thromboembolism?

It is crucial to master accurate and effective diagnostic methods. For VTE patients, timely and accurate diagnosis is the cornerstone of all subsequent effective treatment.

D-dimer test

D-dimer is a protein produced in the body that is released into the blood when deep vein thrombosis occurs. Therefore, D-dimer test can be used as an indicator to assist in the diagnosis of VTE. Generally speaking, elevated D-dimer requires special attention to prevent VTE.

Ultrasound examination

Ultrasound examination is the most commonly used imaging method for diagnosing VTE, including color Doppler ultrasound and transcutaneous venous ultrasound. Ultrasound examination can directly observe the thrombosis in the deep veins and determine the location, shape and size of the thrombus.

How Does Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Device (IPC) Work to Prevent VTE?

Intermittent pneumatic compression device (IPC) is an important means of physical prevention of VTE, and it works closely with overall postoperative care to jointly escort the patient's recovery.

Simulated muscle pump function

IPC periodically inflates and deflates leg airbags to mimic leg muscle contractions. Inflation squeezes veins, pushing blood back, and deflation allows veins to refill. This, like a muscle pump, boosts lower limb blood flow, cuts blood stasis, and lowers thrombosis risk.

Improve blood rheological properties

Using IPC regularly can enhance blood's rheological traits. It thins blood, preventing red blood cells and platelets from clumping, and lessens the chance of clot-forming materials. Also, IPC's pressure spurs endothelial cells to release nitric oxide, which dilates vessels, improves circulation, and strengthens blood vessels' anti-clotting power.

Benefits of VTE Prevention with Longest Medical IPC Devices

Enhanced Post-surgical Recovery

IPC therapy also helps with quicker healing and reduces complications, allowing patients after surgery to regain mobility faster.

Suitable for Various Patients

IPC treatment benefits a wide range of patients at risk of VTE, including those immobile or bedridden due to surgery, injury, or medical conditions.

Non-invasive & Drug-free Approach

IPC devices provide a non - invasive method for VTE prevention. They do not require surgery or the administration of medications, making them relatively safe and easy to use.

Reduction in VTE Incidence

IPC treatment has proven effects on VTE prevention. Using IPC devices can significantly reduce the incidence of VTE by enhancing blood flow in the lower extremities.

Improved Patients Compliance

IPC treatment is generally well - tolerated by patients. The cuffs are designed to be comfortable and the program can be adjusted to individual preferences. This improves patient compliance and reduces the risk of non - adherence to VTE prevention protocols.

Cost Effective

When considering the healthcare costs associated with VTE treatment, prevention with IPC devices is often cost - effective. By reducing the incidence of VTE and hospital stays, the need for more invasive interventions and related complications can be significantly reduced, leading to overall cost - savings.

Use Longest Medical DVT pump to Prevent VTE and Protect Patients' Health.

The Longest Medical Compression DVT Pump is widely used in departments such as orthopedics, surgery, gynecology and obstetrics, and geriatrics. It can effectively prevent VTE and is an important medical device for ensuring patients' health.

Case One

Department: ICU

The ICU of this hospital has admitted many critically ill patients with severe trauma, multiple organ failure, etc.

Their conditions are serious, their vital signs are unstable, and they need to stay in bed for a long time to receive life-support treatment, with a very high risk of VTE. Moreover, ICU patients often have underlying diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, which further increases the complexity and danger of VTE occurrence.

Effects of use

While providing comprehensive treatment to patients, the ICU medical team actively introduced the longest medical DVT pump to prevent VTE. After a period of application, the effect was remarkable. During their stay in the ICU, the incidence of VTE in patients decreased significantly by 48%, laying a good foundation for subsequent rehabilitation treatment.

Case Two

Department: Orthopedics

The hospital's orthopedics department has admitted many elderly patients who underwent hip fracture surgery. Hip fracture surgery is traumatic, and elderly patients have functional decline and need to stay in bed for a long time after surgery.

Long-term bed rest slows down and stagnates the venous blood return in the lower limbs, and the surgical trauma activates the coagulation system, making these patients at high risk of VTE.

Effects of use

After the hospital introduced the Longest medical DVT pump, the venous blood return in the lower limbs of patients improved, the incidence of DVT decreased by 60%, the rehabilitation cycle was shortened, and the physical and economic burden was reduced.

The doctor's operating procedures are simplified, and he has more energy to focus on other conditions. The hospital reduces the cost of DVT complications, improves the turnover rate of hospital beds, reduces operating costs, and improves efficiency and social benefits.
