This study used the Padua Prediction Score (PPS) to guide low-molecular-weight heparin calcium (LMWHC) treatment for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in elderly patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This study retrospectively analyzed 225 elderly patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) between June 2016 and June 2022. Patients were divided into control (n = 124) and study (n = 101) groups. Control patients received routine prevention and treatment of VTE, while patients in the study group received PPS-guided LMWHC treatment for the prevention of VTE. Multiple analytical parameters were assessed including thromboelastography indices, coagulation function parameters, venous blood flow velocity, and the incidence of VTE and recurrent ICH. Thromboelastography indices, coagulation function parameters, and the venous blood flow velocity did not differ significantly between the control and study groups (p > 0.05) before intervention and treatment. However, following PPS-guided LMWHC treatment, a significant improvement in these parameters was observed in the study group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the incidence of VTE was significantly lower in the study group (5.6%) than the control group (14.5%; p = 0.038). No significance differences in the incidence of recurrent ICH were observed (p > 0.05). Our PPS data indicate that LMWHC treatment could significantly improve the coagulation function of elderly patients with ICH, as well as increase the venous blood flow velocity and prevent the occurrence of VTE.
