Insights

This bibliometric study reveals an increasing research trend in central venous catheter-associated thrombosis. Future studies may focus on preventing and treating asymptomatic cases.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Hematology
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Central venous catheters (CVCs) significantly increase the risk of venous thrombosis.
  • Understanding the research landscape of CVC-associated thrombosis is crucial for patient safety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a bibliometric analysis of central venous catheter-associated thrombosis research.
  • To identify trends, key contributors, and research focus areas.

Main Methods:

  • Bibliometric analysis of literature from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E).
  • Utilized CiteSpace software for data analysis, including country, institution, author, and journal distribution.
  • Constructed co-occurrence maps for countries, institutions, authors, and keywords.

Main Results:

  • Analyzed 2,810 records with 29,920 citations, showing an increasing annual trend.
  • Research is concentrated in developed countries (USA, UK, Italy, France).
  • Limited international collaboration; research is becoming more targeted with a focus on evidence-based medicine.

Conclusions:

  • Research on central venous catheter-associated thrombosis is expanding.
  • Future research should prioritize prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of asymptomatic thrombosis.

Venous Thrombosis III: Interprofessional Care

Venous thrombosis requires effective prevention and treatment strategies to improve patient outcomes and reduce potential complications.Prevention StrategiesHealthcare providers must prioritize preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) for all adult patients upon admission. Interventions depend on bleeding and thrombosis risk, medical history, current medications, diagnoses, planned procedures, and patient preferences. Patients on bed rest should change positions every two hours and, if not...

Venous Thrombosis II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

The key difference between Superficial Vein Thrombosis (SVT) and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) lies in their location and severity.Clinical ManifestationsSVT typically presents with localized pain, tenderness, and redness along the course of a superficial vein, often accompanied by a palpable, cord-like structure under the skin. This condition is usually less dangerous than DVT but can be uncomfortable and may lead to complications such as cellulitis or, rarely, a clot extension into the deep...

Venous Thrombosis I: Introduction

Venous thrombosis, the most common disorder of the veins, involves the formation of a thrombus or blood clot associated with vein inflammation. It can be classified as either superficial vein thrombosis or deep vein thrombosis.Superficial Vein Thrombosis: This involves the formation of a thrombus in a superficial vein, usually the greater or lesser saphenous vein. Though less severe than deep vein thrombosis (DVT), SVT can lead to complications if untreated.Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): This...

Venous Thrombosis IV: Nursing Management

Nursing management begins with a thorough assessment of the patient's health history. Key factors include trauma to veins, peripherally inserted central catheters, varicose veins, recent pregnancy or childbirth, surgery, bacteremia, prolonged bed rest, atrial fibrillation, COPD, heart failure, cancer, coagulation disorders, myocardial infarction, spinal cord injury, stroke, prolonged travel, recent bone fractures, and dehydration. Review medication intake, particularly oral contraceptives,...

Anticoagulant Drugs: Low-Molecular-Weight Heparins

Hemostasis is a crucial process that prevents excessive blood loss from damaged blood vessels. It involves various mechanisms such as vasoconstriction, platelet adhesion and activation, and fibrin formation. The importance of each mechanism depends on the type of vessel injury. In contrast, thrombosis is the abnormal formation of a blood clot within the blood vessels, leading to potential complications if the clot obstructs blood flow. Thrombosis can be caused by increased coagulability of the...

Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...
