Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), happening in inpatients usually and especially with the postoperative population, is a serious disease characterized by an increased incidence. The venography is the golden standard to diagnose DVT. However, it involves invasive contrast agent injection and give patients physical and mental pressure. Functional nearinfrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) has been reported recently to diagnose DVT. Thrombolytic therapy activates the dissolution system with an exogenous activator that dissolves coronary thrombosis. The vena cava filter is a medical filter used for the treatment of thrombosis and the prevention of pulmonary embolism. Here we attempt to use portable NIRS for the DVT monitoring in the whole process of vena cava filter implantation and thrombolytic treatment, and contrast the patients of untreated, vena cava filter implantation and thrombolytic treatment. 19 DVT patients and 12 normal subjects were recruited. Thereinto, 7 patients have taken vena cava filter implantation, and 6 patients have taken the thrombolytic treatment. It was found that deoxyhemoglobins (Δ[Hb]) fluctuates and even increases in DVT. After vena cava filter implantation, Δ[Hb] increases first, then decreases. However, it emerges the rising trend and converge to the curves of normal subjects in thrombolytic treatment. The oxyhemoglobins (Δ[HbO2]) emerges opposite trend in most paradigms. The findings reveal the potential of fNIRS for monitoring DVT and therapeutic effect evaluation of thrombolysis and vena cava filters.
