Overview

Narrative review evaluates early catheter-related thrombosis in oncology patients, highlighting incidence variations and implications.

Key Points

  • This review aims to characterize early catheter-related thrombosis in oncology patients with central venous access devices.
  • Systematic literature review focusing on catheter-related thrombosis in oncology patients.
  • Thirteen studies published from 2005 to 2025 identified, including randomized controlled trials and retrospective cohort studies.
  • Incidence rates for early thrombosis and standard thromboprophylaxis were compared across various catheter types.
  • Early catheter-related thrombosis reported in three studies with incidence between 2.4% and 48.39%.
  • Overall CRT incidence varies widely; for PICCs it ranges from 3.3% to 61.3%, while for implantable ports it ranges from 1% to 7.1%.
  • Incidence in control groups for thromboprophylaxis studies was between 3.1% and 16.1%, while intervention groups showed rates from 0.4% to 14.1%.
