Filter by:This study will help enhance current understanding of the impact of Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution (ANH) administration on transfusion requirements post cardiac surgery, the effect of this procedure on coagulation, and platelet hemostasis, and the amount of chest tube drainage 24 hours post coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) surgery.
Adenomyosis affects approximately 21% of symptomatic women who present to gynecology clinics. The disease is characterized by heavy bleeding and pain during periods. Limited treatment options exist for the treatment of adenomyosis for women who desire future child-bearing or prefer to avoid surgery. Recently, ulipristal acetate has been studied as a treatment option for women who have fibroids and heavy bleeding. The majority of women treated with ulipristal stopped having periods altogether. Our study aims to determine whether ulipristal is an adequate treatment for women with adenomyosis.
In the UK, 23,000 (15%) of the 150,000 people who suffer a stroke each year have bleeding in the brain, also referred to as acute intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). An Autoregulation Index (ARI) can be assigned between 0 and 9 (0 being poor and 9 being the most efficient CA observed) to gauge how good the control over blood flow is at a given time. Dynamic CA (dCA) is a measure of the response of cerebral blood flow (CBF) to rapid changes in blood pressure (BP), and several key studies have shown impaired dCA post-acute ICH. The most recent study demonstrated that dCA impairment lasts up to 12 days. This is particularly important to understand, since our preliminary work has recently shown that changes in carbon dioxide using simple breathing exercises can improve Autoregulation. Unfortunately, there are limited non-pharmacological management options and significant opportunities to improve patient outcome in ICH. The proposed study addresses this area, by investigating whether a simple breathing exercise in survivors of ICH is safe, feasible and effective in reducing brain injury by improving cerebral autoregulation.
The study is assessing the impact of an expert eCRF on the management of severe bleeding in the administration of Prothrombin Complex Concentrate in patients treated with oral anticoagulants and adherence to recommendations or experts' consensus
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is the metabolizing enzyme of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), which may play a role in reducing neuroinflammation and regulating cerebral blood flow after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Hypotheses: Pharmacologic inhibition of the sEH enzyme is safe and will result in increased EETs availability in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid. This study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1b randomized trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GSK2256294, a novel soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor in patients with aneurysmal SAH.
The Stroke Recovery Initiative is a nation-wide participant recruitment registry that connects people who have had a stroke with researchers who are working to develop new approaches to improve recovery after stroke.
This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the comparative effectiveness of Levonorgestrel Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS) to Tranexamic Acid (TA) for the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) in women with clinically-significant fibroids.
The first aim of this study is to investigate the frequency and severity of a specific pathological metabolic pattern, mitochondrial dysfunction, of the brain in comatose patients under neurocritical care. This pattern is recognized as a complication after compromised blood flow to the brain and may be amenable to treatment. The other main aim of this study is to correlate patterns of metabolites between brain and jugular venous blood. It is probable but not proven that jugular venous microdialysis can mirror the global metabolic state of the brain.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to investigate the blood-conservation effect of the topical hemostatic agents in patients receiving primary TKA procedures. The investigators will also observe if there is increased risk of blood transfusion rate by using topical hemostatic agents or not.
The SAHaRA trial will clarify the role of treating anemia with Red Blood Cell (RBC) transfusion in a unique and vulnerable patient population, and determine whether that impacts on functional outcomes and mortality. It will guide best practice standards and clarify the optimal RBC transfusion strategy in patients with aSAH.
