Daily Ultrasound-screening for CVC-related Thrombosis

The central venous catheters (CVC) related thrombosis is an issue of importance to ICU clinicians.This study conducts the daily ultrasound-screening for CVC-related thrombosis (DUCT).Its aim is to evaluate the characteristic and regularity of the central venous catheters (CVC) related thrombosis in ICU patients, and optimize the screening program of CVC-related thrombosis.
