Description
Shoma Nagata and co-authors review whether blood thinning pills can fix a blocked central venous port, in work from 2025. Ports give long term access to a vein for treatment. A fibrin sheath can grow around the catheter and block drawing blood, a common cause of port failure.
The team looked back at patients treated between May 2023 and February 2024. Nine patients were included, most with open ended catheters. All had trouble drawing blood, and one also had trouble injecting. All got the same thinning drug at one of two doses. Flow checks, port function, and side effects graded by a standard scale were recorded.
