Precautions for thrombolytic therapy of venous thrombosis

Thrombolytic therapy for venous thrombosis is a relatively common treatment method. When a patient has venous thrombosis, anticoagulant thrombolytic treatment should be carried out in time. The more common method is thrombolysis, which is a surgical method to treat thrombosis. After the thrombosis treatment, it is necessary to strengthen daily conditioning and understand some precautions. The patient should rest in bed and pay attention to diet conditioning. Avoid bleeding situations.

Common precautions after thrombolytic surgery

1. After thrombolytic surgery, bed rest is the main approach, with the affected limb appropriately elevated. You can sit while eating. If the inferior vena cava filter is installed from the neck, try to keep your waist and back relatively upright while sitting, and do not bend too much.

2. If you need to urinate or defecate, you can get out of bed carefully, but before getting out of bed, please inform the nurse to turn off the infusion pump connected to the thrombolytic tube in the leg to avoid bleeding.

3. During thrombolytic therapy, you can turn over appropriately, but be careful to avoid bending the thrombolytic tube in the leg, especially to avoid the thrombolytic tube falling off from the limb connection.

2. Long-term bed rest can easily lead to constipation, so if you do not have diabetes, you can take foods that promote bowel movements such as honey and bananas.

What do family members need to help doctors observe? 1. Observe whether the patient has bleeding gums, nose bleeding, hematuria, bloody or black stools, cyanosis, ecchymosis, headache, vomiting, abnormal limb movements, etc. If any, inform the doctor immediately.

2. If the patient experiences chest tightness, chest pain, cough, difficulty breathing, or bluish lips, inform the doctor immediately.

3. Pay special attention to whether there is bleeding at the puncture points of the neck and affected limb. If necessary, inform the doctor immediately.

2. To prevent recurrence of lower limb venous thrombosis, patients need to take warfarin for at least six months, preferably for a full year (see the warfarin use section for specific precautions). If you cannot take warfarin for some reason, take rivaroxaban for at least half a year.
