Deep vein thrombosis in patients with patellar fractures: Assessing incidence rates and identifying risk factors
Our study investigates the incidence of thrombosis in patellar fracture patients and identifies key risk factors for DVT, including age, open and multiple injuries, and the time from injury to surgery. Additionally, we highlight sodium and albumin levels as protective factors. By establishing threshold values for age and surgical delay, our findings improve DVT risk assessment, facilitating earlier and more targeted interventions.
