Abstract

Currently there is no reliable evaluation system for predicting deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the hospital after ischemic and even more – hemorrhagic stroke. Objective: to review current literature data on the verification of risk factors for the development of DVT in stroke patients and aggressive and early screening strategies in the early post-stroke period. Three fundamental factors underlie the development of DVT: damage to the venous wall, the tendency of blood to hypercoagulation and slow blood flow. Most of the factors that are more or less associated with the development of thromboembolic events revolve around these 3 elements. Typical factors were older age, female gender, changes in the levels of clinical and laboratory variables such as D-dimer or scores on the Berg equilibrium scale. An effective model of risk stratification for DVT at the hospital level after a stroke would be useful for identifying high-risk patients and for implementing individual preventive strategies, therefore further population studies are needed, including in Kyrgyzstan.
