SURVEY ON THE COMPLICATION RATE OF ENOXAPARIN INJECTION AND RELATED FACTORS IN PATIENTS AT THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: The study was conducted to describe the rate of complications in patients using subcutaneous Enoxaparin and investigate factors associated with the risk of complications in the Emergency and Intensive Care Unit of Hanoi Medical University Hospital in 2024. Methods: A prospective observational study was performed on 55 intensive care patients receiving Enoxaparin. Results: The proportion of patients experiencing adverse effects from the drug was 90.9%. Of these, seven cases (14%) presented both systemic and local complications, while 43 cases (86%) had local complications. Conclusion: Factors associated with systemic complications included a history of bleeding, changes in glomerular filtration rate during treatment, a history of heart failure, and twice-daily dosing (p < 0.05). Factors related to complications at the injection site were age, weight, length of hospital stay, duration of drug use, history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and twice-daily dosing (p < 0.05).
