Abstract

The prevalence of VTE is increasing in tertiary pediatric hospitals. Identification of high-risk populations using uniform criteria is required to develop evidence-based VTE prevention guidelines. To develop a VTE risk prediction rule, the Peds-Clot clinical Decision Rule (PCDR), to identify high-risk children who were at increased risk of developing VTE. This retrospective case-control study developed the PCDR using a derivation cohort (173 cases, 346 controls) and validated it on a separate validation cohort (100 cases, 100 controls). A uniform data collection strategy was applied to derive both the samples. Conditional logistic regression analyses were used to develop a risk-prediction model. Each significant predictor was assigned a score based on its beta coefficient and the PCDR was developed. ROC curves were derived to test the performance of the PCDR. Characteristics of derivation and validation cohorts were comparable. Six risk factors (positive blood stream infection, central venous catheter, direct admission to ICU/NICU, hospitalization for ≥ 7 days, immobilization for > 72 h, and use of birth control pills) formed the final risk prediction model (risk score range, 0.5-9.5). A risk score of 3 or more identified high-...Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
