AbstractApplication of the Caprini risk assessment model was explored in patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.This study was a prospective study. The risk factors for DVT were assessed with a survey at baseline and on the morning of surgery, first day after surgery and sixth day by using repeated blood vessels on color Doppler ultrasound of the lower limbs, and the intraoperative and postoperative conditions were recorded.Among 148 surgical patients, 24.3% had asymptomatic DVT. According to the risk stratification, the incidence of DVT was related to the Caprini score (P < .001). The area under the curve of the Caprini model was 0.701 ± 0.047 (95% CI: 0.609-0.793, P<.001). The Youden index was 0.368, while the critical point was 10.5 in the Caprini model, corresponding to a sensitivity of 0.806 and a specificity of 0.563. Age, cardiovascular disease, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative fever, preoperative preparation, and hospital stay were higher in DVT patients than in patients without DVT. Moreover, the incidence of DVT in patients with a lithotomy position was higher than that in patients with a scissors position. In binary logistic regression analysis, the independent risk factors for DVT development were age, intraoperative blood loss, and preoperative preparation time.The Caprini model can be used for the prediction of venous thromboembolism in laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery patients. The thrombosis risk assessment model must be established in line with patients undergoing endoscopic malignant tumor surgery.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
