Nomogram for Deep Vein Thrombosis Prediction Post-Endovascular Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective Multicenter Observational Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a frequent complication following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS), potentially leading to fatal pulmonary embolism (PE). Identifying patients early at high risk for DVT is clinically important. This study developed and validated a nomogram combining laboratory findings and clinical characteristics to predict the risk of lower-extremity DVT after EVT in patients with AIS.

Methods

This retrospective multicentre observational study was conducted in two tertiary hospitals in China, enrolling 640 patients who underwent ultrasonography for DVT diagnosis within 10 days following EVT. Data on medical history, examination and laboratory results were collected for logistic regression analyses to dev
