Risk Factors for Thrombosis in Children With Central Venous Lines

Completed
Conditions
Pediatric Venous Thromboembolism
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Labs drawn
Registration Number
NCT04117217
Lead Sponsor
University of Arizona
Brief Summary

This project addresses the role of lab markers around the time of central line placement in predicting risk of thrombosis in pediatric patients with central venous lines being placed. The project proposes an innovative way to predict higher risk of thrombosis in the pediatric population to give clinicians a valid tool to guide clinical practice for these patients.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Thrombosiswithin one year of enrollment

Patients will be enrolled during the time of central line placements and labs would be drawn during line placement. Patients will be followed prospectively for a catheter related t thrombosis event or not. Lab markers and clinical states of patients who develop or do not develop a thrombosis will be analyzed
