Filter by:The overall goal of the VVIRTUOSO study is to determine the incidence of VTE including symptomatic DVT and PE after hospital discharge in patients with COVID-19 by implementing a pragmatic patient-centred prospective virtual VTE monitoring program in Canada and the United States.
This retrospective cohort study aims to characterise outcomes for patients treated on an intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19 in England and Wales, one year after discharge from hospital. Outcomes will be compared with patients admitted as an emergency to an ICU for other conditions. The study will use existing national audit data linked to routine healthcare datasets.
The TILE pilot study will be a multicenter, open-label, assessor-blinded RCT (randomized control trial) comparing extended LMWH (Low Molecular Weight Heparin) vs. DOAC (Direct Oral Anticoagulants) to PTS (prevent post thrombotic syndrome) in patients with DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis).
Anticoagulants influence either coagulation, inflammation and inflammatory processes in deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Acute DVT cause an inflammatory response that may persist for a long period of time. There is a need to describe patterns of change in serum biomarker levels after acute DVT, and explore the association between trajectory biological patterns and clinical evolution in the era of various anticoagulants in the acute phase of treatment in order to be able to further avoid recurrence and late sequelae. It appears that direct oral anticoagulants and heparin alter inflammatory markers in different ways. It is therefore important to study the evolution of markers according to the different treatments used and secondarily to compare them with each other. Tinzaparin is used in the long term in patients with DVT, it is necessary to measure the evolution of inflammatory markers and then in another study to compare with the other molecules.
In patients with symptoms of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) (mainly deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE)), the study will evaluate the agreement between the D-Dimer measurements from the LumiraDx POC D-Dimer assay and a reference method, as an aid in diagnosis, assessment and exclusion of DVT and PE.
Major abdominal surgery for cancer is major risk factor for thromboembolism. Patients who undergo major abdominal surgery are prone to develop venous thromboembolism, both in the early postoperative period and after hospital discharger. There are strong recommendations in the international guidelines in favor to pharmacological thromboprophylaxis. Thus there is no consensus dor the duration of the prophylaxis. There are authors that suggest extended prophylaxis up to 4 week after surgery. On the other hand, there are prospective randomized trials that inpatient (short-term up to 7-10 days) prophylaxis is adequate.
This study is an extension of a planned quality improvement project that aims to promote standard of care by increasing the use of evidence-based clinical decision rules amongst emergency medicine providers in the University of Utah Emergency Department. Patient-specific information from the EHR will be used to recommend the use of relevant clinical decision rules to emergency medicine providers at the point-of-care. These recommendations will be in the form of non-interruptive alerts with one-click access to the suggested decision rules through the MDCalc Connect EHR add-on application. Specific aims of the study are to determine if 1) patient-specific non-interruptive alerts increase the use of clinical decision rules amongst emergency medicine providers and 2) an increase in the use of clinical decision rules affects provider ordering habits.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy on the patency of iliac vein at 12-month post stenting in patients with acute proximal DVT and ipsilateral iliac vein stenosis who received percutaneous mechanic thrombectomy and iliac vein stenting.
Direct oral anticoagulants (Rivaroxaban, Apixaban and Dabigatran) are an alternative to anti-vitamin K drugs and low molecular weight heparins in many cardiovascular diseases. This new class of anticoagulants represents a particular and very promising advance: they are administered orally, their mechanism of action is rapid and direct on coagulation and their predictable pharmacological action allows for administration at fixed doses. In contrast to anti-vitamin K, there is no need for routine biological monitoring. However, their therapeutic range is narrow and there is no routine biological monitoring. Rigorous compliance is therefore necessary. In addition, there are no official validated recommendations either for the measurement of anticoagulant activity in certain emergency situations, or for the management of severe bleeding (except recently for Pradaxa®). Their correct use requires the training and involvement of health professionals as well as information and support for patients. Pharmaceutical interviews are one of the main ways in which pharmacists can ensure this security through personalized and optimal patient care. The purpose of these interviews is to: - Reinforce the pharmacist's advisory, educational and preventive roles with patients; - To enhance the pharmacist's expertise in the area of medication; - To evaluate the patient's knowledge of his or her treatment; - To assess the patient's knowledge of his or her treatment; To seek the patient's therapeutic adherence and help him or her to take ownership of his or her treatment; - To evaluate, in the long term, the patient's appropriation of his or her treatment. In this way, they enable involvement with patients while providing a link between healthcare professionals, which is essential for optimal patient care. In recent years, numerous studies have been conducted on pharmaceutical interviews in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. On the other hand, few studies have been conducted in France to evaluate the clinical impact of pharmaceutical interviewing in medical services. The aim of this study is to compare patients' knowledge of direct oral anticoagulants between 2 cardiology departments offering or not a pharmaceutical interview.
The RESOLVE-DVT study is a randomized single-center pilot study to determine the effects of hydroxyethylrutoside (Venoruton) on aspects of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) resolution associated with post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). Based on these results, the investigators will estimate its potential as a preventive therapy for PTS. Eligible consenting patients who develop an acute, objectively confirmed DVT will be randomized and equally allocated to two trial arms, either the treatment group (Venoruton tablet 500 mg twice daily) or the control group (usual care). The pilot trial consists of 5 study contacts over 12 weeks at which outcome assessment is performed: inclusion, 1 week, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks. Treatment allocation is masked for outcome assessors, but not for patients.
