| الوصف: | Background Venous thromboembolic events (VTE) are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following traumatic injury. We examined demographic characteristics, chemoprophylaxis, and outcomes of VTE patients with blunt trauma requiring hospitalization. Methods A retrospective review of adult blunt trauma hospitalizations with and without VTE between 2012 and 2019 was conducted. Deaths in the emergency department were excluded. Univariate and multivariable analyses, including machine learning classification algorithms for VTE, were performed. Results Of 10,926 admitted adult blunt trauma patients, 177 had VTE events. VTE events occurred at a median of 6 [IQR 3–11] days, with 7.3% occurring within 1 day of admission. VTE patients were more often male, and more often underwent surgery. They had higher injury severity as well as longer intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay. While VTE occurred throughout the spectrum of injury severity, 27.7% had low injury severity (ISS < = 9). In multivariable analyses, both heparin and enoxaparin had reduced adjusted odds ratios for VTE. Conclusion Approximately 7.3% of VTE events occurred within one day of admission. A substantial proportion of VTE events occurred in patients with low injury severity (ISS < = 9). Subcutaneous unfractionated heparin and enoxaparin chemoprophylaxis were both inversely associated with VTE. These findings underscore the need for vigilance for VTE identification in blunt trauma patients throughout their hospitalization and VTE prevention efforts. |
