VENOUS THROMBOSES IN TRAUMATOLOGY AND ORTHOPEDICS: DIFFICULTIES OF DIAGNOSTICS

In the review the data are given about significance of the problem of hemostasis disturbance after operations in case of fractures of long tubular bones and big orthopedic operations relating to surgical operations with high risk of thromboembolic episodes development, and also well-timed and high-grade diagnostics of these severe complications. Data value of clinical inspection in these patients is insignificant. Tool methods allow diagnosing already generated thromboembolic masses. It is not enough to carry out corresponding preventive and medical actions. One manages to reveal prethrombosis condition only using laboratory methods. Among the laboratory tests available today only determination of D-dimer level can help to make clear the thrombotic risk in a patient. However this test possesses high diagnostic sensitivity only in the late posttraumatic phase and at the same time possesses low specificity, especially in the patients of a traumatology-orthopedic profile. Therefore, determination of D-dimer can be insufficient to exclude the diagnosis of a venous thrombosis in this group of patients.
