Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The incidence of deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity after spinal surgery remains controversial, and its prevention is still under discussion.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the progress of the prevention of the deep venous thrombosis after spinal surgery.METHODS: The domestic and foreign related literature about the deep vein thrombosis after the spinal surgery, which was filtrated from CNKI and PubMed databases, were searched for the articles concerning the prevention of the deep venous thrombosis after spinal surgery published from January 1993 to January 2016.Finally, 41 eligible articles were included, and the prevention methods, risk factors and incidence were summarized.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) With the technology and medical equipment development, more novel technologies and biomaterials are extensively applied in spinal surgery; meanwhile, complex and difficult surgeries,big surgical trauma and prolonged operation time all increase the risk of deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity;thereafter, the incidence is on a rise. (2) The prevention methods of deep venous thrombosis have been improved, and the grading of prevention becomes more sufficient. (3) During venipuncture and injection, upper extremity should be selected firstly, so as to avoid damage to the lower extremity veins. (4) The following studies should concentrate on understanding the epidemic characteristics of deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity after spinal surgery, and confirming the best prevention time, as well as effective drugs and physical measurements.
