ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the related factors of senile acute pulmonary thromboembolism(PTE) patients,and to observe the prognosis and analyze the strategy of control and prevention to reduce the incidence. Methods 50 elderly patients with acute PTE were selected,related factors were analyzed by using the retrospective investigation,and the prevention and control were administrated.Results The mainly disease occurred of the elderly patients with acute PTE were combined with chronic diseases 42% (21 /50),with lower extremity DVT 26.00%(13 /50)and with recent trauma,fracture and operation 20%(10 /50).Elderly patients with acute PTE who were ≥70 years of age and lying in bed the time≥1 month,were 58%(29 /50)and 62%(31 /50),which were higher than those of the other age <70 years old and lying in bed time <1 month of patients,the difference was statistically signifi-cant(χ2 =9.26,9.80,all P <0.05).Conclusion The related risk factors for elderly patients with acute PTE mainly correlate with age,lying in bed time,chronic diseases,patients with lower extremity DVT and recent trauma,fracture, operation,the variety of factors and overlap each other.Mastering the variety factors of PTE in the nursing process,and taking effective measures to prevent and control the factorscan reduce or avoid the occurrence of acute PTE,and im-prove the prognosis of the patients.
