Validation of upper extremity post-thrombotic syndrome outcome measurement in children.
Using the Manco-Johnson instrument in a derivation cohort of 107 children with or without a central venous catheter, upper extremity physical findings of post-thrombotic syndrome were absent, and the pain score was 0 in all but one child. Interrater reliability in an independent validation cohort (n = 38) of children with or without upper extremity deep venous thrombosis was 97%-100%.
