Deskripsi
Objective This study aimed to investigate the risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in admitted patients with lung carcinoma before surgery. Methods We conducted a retrospective case-control study of 94 preoperative lung cancer patients with VTE between January 2017 to December 2020. Each VTE patients was randomly matched with 2 control patients according to residence and gender. The clinical characteristics and related laboratory test results between the groups were compared by univariate analysis, while the risk factors of VTE in preoperative patients with lung cancer were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Patients aged ≥60 years, a history of arrhythmia, homocysteine>15ummol/L, Fibrinogen (FIB) >4 g/L and D-dimer>500 ng/mL were found to be associated with an increased risk of VTE by univariate analysis. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age ≥60 years (OR=10.985), FIB >4 g/L (OR=8.861) and D-Dimer >500 ng/mL (OR=6.613) were independent risk factors for VTE in patients with lung carcinoma before surgery (P<.05). Conclusion For preoperative patients with lung cancer, the independent risk factors of VTE included age ≥60 years, FIB >4 g/L and D-Dimer >500 ng/mL. As for these patients, prophylactic anticoagulant therapy should be considered before surgery.
