ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the risk factors and awareness level of deep vein thrombosis(DVT)in elderly outpatients in Shanghai community hospitals.Methods A total of 710 elderly outpatients were subjected with random sampling from 10 community hospitals in Shanghai.Au-tar deep vein thrombosis risk assessment scale and venous thromboembolism(VTE)self-manage-ment ability related knowledge scale were used to conduct questionnaire investigation.The influ-encing factors for risk level of DVT and for VTE self-management ability score were analyzed in these patients.Results The high-risk DVT group had significantly larger proportions of aged 65 years,primary school education or below,chronic diseases,BMI≥28 kg/m2,and suburban resi-dents than the low-risk DVT patients(88.0%vs 50.9%,65.5%vs 26.5%,94.8%vs 86.2%,12.9%vs 5.2%,58.2%vs 43.9%,P<0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,education level,chronic disease,multimorbidity,BMI and residential area were independent risk factors for risk level of DVT in the elderly outpatients in community hospitals(P<0.05,P<0.01).Hypertension,cerebral infarction,cerebral hemorrhage and malignant tumors were inde-pendent risk diseases of DVT in the patients with multimorbidity(P<0.01).Age,education lev-el,chronic diseases,BMI,smoking,residential area and other factors were related to the score of VTE self-management(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion General practitioners should pay close attention to the elderly outpatients in community hospitals,with characteristics of advanced age,obesity,lower education level,chronic disease,multimorbidity and living in suburban area,espe-cially those with multiple diseases.What's more,awareness of risk for DVT and self-management ability should be improved simultaneously.
