Objective To evaluate the value of clinical application of determination of lower venous pressure in the diagnosis and treatment of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Methods The 90 patients with DVT of unilateral lower limb who were admitted by using color Doppler or deep veins of lower limb angiography in our hospital during the period of 2013 July to 2014 June were selected and as the research object (case group), 37 cases were male, 53 cases were female; the age was 18-84 years old, mean age was 59.48 years old. According to the development of disease, 90 cases were divided into acute 30 cases, subacute 30 cases, and chronic 30 cases; and according to the pathological types were divided into the central type in 30 cases, 30 cases of peripheral type, and 30 cases of mixed type. At the same time the without lower extremity DVT volunteers of 20 cases were selected as normal control group, including male 9 cases, female 11 cases; age was 21-65 years old, average age was 38.7 years old. The static venous pressure (P₀), dynamic venous pressure (P₀₀), and decreased pressure ratio (Pd) of double lower limbs of participants in 2 groups were determinated and comparative analyzed. Results The P₀ and P₀₀ of patients with different development of disease and pathological types of the case group were higher than those of the normal control group (P < 0.01), and the Pd was lower than that of the normal control group (P < 0.01). In case group, the P₀ and P₀₀ of acute phase were higher than those of the normal control group (P < 0.01), the P₀ of central type was higher than that of the peripheral type and mixed type (P < 0.01), and the Pd central type was lower than that of mixed type (P < 0.01). The above 3 indexes' differences of double lower limbs in the normal control group had no statistical significance (P > 0.01). In case group, the P₀ and P₀₀ of ipsilateral limb in different development of disease and pathological types were higher than those of the healthy limb, and the Pd were lower than that of the healthy limb (P < 0.01). Conclusions Lower extremity venous pressure measurements can be used in clinical detection for early lower limb DVT, and can be used as the objective index of clinical evaluation curative effect for the treatment of DVT. It is a simple and practical clinical detection method.
