The risks of venous thrombosis and thromboembolism in cirrhotic patients: An integrative review
Resumen
The present study employed the integrative literature review methodology to examine the risks of deep vein thrombosis and venous thromboembolism in patients with liver cirrhosis. Different data sets were collected, all related to this specific theme. The discussion addressed and analyzed the risks of developing deep vein thrombosis and venous thromboembolism in patients with different degrees of liver cirrhosis, the occurrence of thrombotic events in these patients was also analyzed, it was also observed that deep venous thrombosis and thromboembolism are less common in alcoholic cirrhosis than in non-alcoholic cirrhosis. It is concluded that the understanding of these risks is still limited and there is a lack of more in-depth and complete studies and research, since there is a general reluctance to use anticoagulation for fear of hemorrhagic complications when there is an indication for the use of anticoagulants, such as venous thromboembolism (VTE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which makes it impossible to carry out clinical trials to understand these risks and make use of an effective therapy.
