Deep Vein Thrombosis in Severe Motor and Intellectual Disabilities Patients and Its Treatment by Anticoagulants of Warfarin Versus Edoxaban

Abstract: Objective: Patients with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID) often develop complications, including paralysis of the extremities due to abnormal muscular tonicity. Furthermore, the incidence of sudden death, which may be caused by pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE), is approximately 4.2%. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is attracting attention as an embolic source. In this study, DVT was confirmed in SMID patients by lower extremity venous ultrasound. The oral anticoagulant, warfarin, and novel oral anti… Show more

“…In adult literature, cumulative incidence of DVT among patients with severe motor and intellectual disability may be as high as 8.4% and is related to altered neurovascular tone. 65,66 Children with severe motor and intellectual disability, those with chronic ventilator dependency, or spastic/flaccid cerebral palsy may be at similar risk for developing VTE.…”

“…In previous studies, the prevalence of DVT in patients with severe motor and intellectual disabilities was 8.4%, 6 that in patients with PD was 20%, 7 and the 1‐year incidence of venous thromboembolism in patients with ALS was 11.2% 8 The prevalence of DVT in patients who underwent TPPV in our study is higher than that in patients with several common neuromuscular diseases 6‐8 and the same as that in patients with cancer who are vulnerable to DVT 9 . A trend toward an increased risk of DVT was observed with a higher rate of ventilator use in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy 10 .…”

“…For example, CVC, a well-described HA-VTE risk factor in children (4, 25–27), may be necessary for safe medication administration, blood draws, and hemodynamic monitoring during IMV. Children receiving prolonged IMV are acutely and chronically immobilized from their underlying pathology and, at times, intentionally to ensure patient comfort, safety, and ventilator synchrony (28, 29). In our study, 66.3% of children undergoing IMV experienced acute mobility impairment, a feature we also found to be associated with HA-VTE.…”
