Effect of different thrombus risk assessment tools in obstetric inpatients / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the application value of Caprini thrombosis risk assessment scale and Shanghai venous thrombosis risk factor scale in predicting venous thromboembolism in hospitalized maternal patients.Methods:This was a case-control study. A total of 67 pregnant women complicated with venous thromboembolism in the Obstetrics Department of Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2010 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. And 144 pregnant women without venous thromboembolism in the same period were selected. Two venous thrombosis risk assessment tools were used to evaluate the pregnant women, and the predictive effectiveness and accuracy of the two assessment tools were compared.Results:The effects of the two risk assessment tools for venous thrombosis were different before and after delivery with statistical difference ( Z=8.15, 5.97, both P<0.01), but the Shanghai venous thrombosis risk factor scale (83.9%, 67.3%) was superior to Caprini thrombosis risk assessment scale (52.1%, 45.0%) in the accuracy of prenatal and postnatal prediction. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the Shanghai venous thrombosis risk factor rating scale (0.863) was significantly superior to the Caprini thrombosis risk assessment scale (0.748) after delivery. Conclusions:The Shanghai venous thrombosis risk factor scale is more valuable than the Caprini thrombosis risk assessment scale in the early risk identification of venous thromboembolism in pregnant women.
