Filter by:EFISS is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled trial testing the feasibility, safety and efficacy of prophylactic administration of fibrinogen in paediatric spinal surgery. The study is monocentric and will be conducted in University Hospital Brno, Czech Republic. This is a pilot study in which the primary objective will be to evaluate the feasibility of a clinical trial in 32 selected patients undergoing scoliosis surgery. Participants will be randomized into study groups in a 1:1 allocation ratio and followed up for 28 days after surgery. The expected duration of this clinical trial is 8 months.
Background Novelty The global assays of coagulation, namely the viscoelastometric tests and clot waveform has never been studied in detail before in snakebite victims. The pathophysiology of VICC including specific factor deficiencies and serial trend in blood cell indices amongst various hematotoxic snakebite in the region is not known. No Indian study to date has systematically examined the changes in early laboratory tests results in envenomed and non envenomed snakebite victims.
In hematotoxic snakebites, due to the lack of a better alternative, 20 minute whole blood clotting test (20'WBCT) or Clotting time remains the standard test in developing countries even though its reliability and sensitivity has been shown to be low. Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) based Clot Waveform Analysis (CWA) is an optic absorbance assay that can be used as a global clotting test. It essentially detects the change in colour of the plasma as coagulation progresses and quantifies the change in the form of a waveform. In this study, the investigators intend to study prospectively the behaviour of clot wave (CW) in hematotoxic bites. A pilot observational study was initially conducted (IEC Ref No. 42/16/IEC/JMMC and RI) and CWA showed changes which provided information earlier than the conventional coagulation studies in the snakebite victims studied. While aPTT or WBCT reflects clotting time, CWA conveys the dynamic process of clot formation. CWA may reveal disorders of clotting in snakebite victims before the conventional tests become abnormal. Here the investigators aim to study the changes in CWA in snakebite victims who develop coagulation disorders in blood
Critically ill patients with spontaneously prolonged pro-thrombin time, where administration of intravenous administration of phytomenadione (vitamin K) has been ordered by the treating physician will be identified. After signed informed consent baseline samples will be collected. Phytomenadione will be given and 24 hours after administration new blood samples will be collected. Several different advanced coagulation and vitamin K-assays will be performed before and 24 hours after vitamin K administration.
