Analysis of the current status and influencing factors of LEDVT in patients with acute hemorrhagic stroke.

Lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT) is a common complication in patients with acute hemorrhagic stroke, leading to increased risk of pulmonary embolism, disability, and mortality. Despite its importance, LEDVT often goes undetected in clinical practice, and early preventive strategies remain insufficient. This study aimed to explore the incidence of LEDVT in acute hemorrhagic stroke patients, identify key risk factors, and discuss potential preventive measures to reduce its occurrence and improve patient outcomes. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 431 acute hemorrhagic stroke patients admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College between January 2022 and December 2023. Relevant clinical data, including patient demographics, comorbidities, NIHSS score, and treatment history, were collected. LEDVT was diagnosed using standardized ultrasound criteria. Statistical analyses, including univariate and multivariate logistic regression, were performed using SPSS 17.0 to identify independent risk factors associated with LEDVT. The incidence of LEDVT among the 431 acute hemorrhagic stroke patients was 12.1%, with 52 cases identified. Significant risk factors for LEDVT included advanced age, diabetes, infection, prolonged bed rest, high-dose diuretic use, NIHSS score ≥16, and hyperlipidemia (P < .05). Gender, smoking history, and alcohol consumption were not found to be statistically significant. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that advanced age, diabetes, infection, prolonged bed rest, high-dose diuretic use, NIHSS score ≥16, and hyperlipidemia were independent risk factors for LEDVT. LEDVT in acute hemorrhagic stroke patients is influenced by multiple factors, including comorbidities, severity of neurological impairment, and treatment regimens. Dehydration therapy used for managing brain edema and intracranial pressure was also found to be an independent risk factor. Given the significant impact of LEDVT on patient prognosis, early identification of at-risk patients and the implementation of proactive preventive measures-such as pharmacological treatments and physical interventions-are critical in reducing the occurrence of LEDVT, alleviating patient suffering, and improving long-term outcomes. Future studies should focus on refining preventive strategies and exploring more individualized interventions to further reduce the incidence of LEDVT in these patients.
