| Abstrakt: | Our objective was to study the proportion of children developing Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) following central venous Catheter (CVC) insertion and the risk factors of CRT in pediatric patients with CVC. One hundred four children aged 29 days to 18 years who had a percutaneous non-tunneled CVC inserted were enrolled. Ultrasonogram (USG) with venous Doppler scan was performed within 48 hours of CVC removal to diagnose CRT. The major indications for CVC insertion were surgical care 34 (32.6%) and ICU care 28(26.9%). The median age of the patients was 3 years, and 75% were males. The median number of CVC days was 10 (IQR 5.15). CRT was seen in 45(43.3%), of which 33 (73.3%) were asymptomatic. The rate of CRT was 35.69 cases per 1000 CVC days (95% CI 26.03-47.75). The number of days a catheter was in place and USG-guided catheter insertion was a significant risk factor. The multivariate logistic regression model showed that the duration of CVC in situ was independently associated with the development of CRT (OR, 1.06; 95% CI 1.0-1.1; P =0.02). CVC duration was a major risk factor for the development of CRT. There was a higher risk of developing a symptomatic CRT with central venous catheters than hemodialysis sheaths.
