Conditions

Thrombotic dysfunction of MC refers to the obstruction or complete blockage of infusion through the catheter caused by fibrin sheath, thrombus formation inside the catheter, or thrombus formation at the tip of the catheter, with an incidence rate of up to 27.4%. The main clinical manifestations include the ability to complete catheter flushing or drug infusion despite the catheter being obstructed

Interventions

5% sodium bicarbonate solution group:Seal the tube with 2ml of 5% sodium bicarbonate solution under standard positive pressure
Normal saline group:Use 2ml of 0.9% sodium chloride injection and seal the tube under standard positive pressure
heparin saline (10 U/mL) group:Using 10U/ml heparin saline , 2ml tubes were sealed under standard positive pressure
