Abstract

Background: Emergency femoral dialysis catheter placement, a common procedure in end-stage kidney disease patients, is associated with complications such as deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities, with a reported incidence of 16.7%, overlapping symptoms with a high risk of mortality. Objectives: To determine the rate of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities in end-stage kidney disease patients undergoing emergency femoral dialysis catheter placement and some related factors of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities. Materials and methods: A randomized study of 50 end-stage kidney disease patients undergoing emergency femoral dialysis catheter placement at the Nephrology-Hemodialysis Department, Can Tho Central General Hospital, from 2023-04 to 2024-04.  Results: Among the 50 participating patients, the average age was 55.64 ± 18.36, males accounted for 40%, and the rate of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities in end-stage kidney disease patients with emergency femoral dialysis catheters was 18%. There was a correlation between a history of cancer and immobility with deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities with ORs of 15.6 (2.25-108.11) and 39 (5.35-283.86), respectively, with p<0.001. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, cancer and immobility were factors that simultaneously caused DVT with a p-value <0.05. Out of a total of 9 patients with deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities, 2 patients showed clear clinical symptoms, 6 out of 9 patients with deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities were related to the catheterized leg. Conclusions:. The rate of deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities was 18%, correlated with a history of cancer, immobility, and the catheterized leg. The majority of patients with deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities did not exhibit clear clinical symptoms.
