Brief summary
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.
Interventions
Daily ultrasound-screening for CVC-related thrombosis (DUCT) by compression ultrasound and color doppler ultrasound.

Exclusion criteria
* Patients with infection or inflammation or local trauma at the insertion site.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the incidence rate of central venous catheters related thrombosis (CRT) | the assessment time will be from the time patients admitted in ICU to the time leaving ICU, less than 6 months. | the percentage of patients who have CRT in all patients included. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the time when the central venous catheters related thrombosis (CRT) occured | the assessment time will be from the time patients admitted in ICU to the time leaving ICU, less than 6 months. | which day the CRT is found after central venous catheter. |
