Filter by:Study Objective: To assess the value of Rivaroxaban for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after knee arthroscopy (KA) taking the placebo as standard of reference. Study Population: Patients undergoing therapeutic KA at the study Centers, irrespective of the type and duration of the procedure, will be eligible for the study. Study Design: Multicenter, randomized, double blind superiority, phase II trial comparing two arms: - (R-7d) Rivaroxaban (10 mg od os) for 7 days - (PL-7d) Placebo for 7 days. Follow-up: 3-month period after the randomization Standard of Reference:Placebo will be the standard of reference in accordance to international guidelines Study length May 2012-December 2012 Total patients number: 500 patients Primary Efficacy End-Point: Occurrence in the 3-month period after the randomization of at least one of the following events, objectively proven (by means of CCDU; multi-slice chest TC-angio; autopsy, if necessary, or clinical ground): - All-cause mortality - Symptomatic VTE - Asymptomatic proximal DVT Secondary Efficacy End-point: • Combined incidence of all DVT plus symptomatic PE Primary Safety End-point: Incidence of major bleedings. Secondary Safety End-point: Overall incidence of bleeding
The goal of the present study is to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients with gastrointestinal bleeding originating from the small intestine following diagnostic investigation with single balloon enteroscopy. We hypothesize that single balloon enteroscopy can arrive at a diagnosis and provide therapeutics in a majority of patients with gastrointestinal bleeding originating in the small intestine.
The objective of this study is to find the maximum tolerated dose and preliminary efficacy of desmopressin as an haemostatic agent, when is administered to patients with colorectal cancer and rectal bleeding, before specific oncologic treatment with surgery and/or chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that a BioFreedom™ Drug Coated Stent is non-inferior to a bare metal stent at one year as measured by the composite safety endpoint of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and definite/probable stent thrombosis, and that its efficacy is superior to a bare metal stent as measured by clinically driven TLR at one year.
The effects of topical application of 3g tranexamic acid for 2 hours prior to opening of the suction drain following a total hip replacement
Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) is an important morbidity affecting premature infants and can have considerable effects on neurodevelopmental outcome. The investigators showed that preterm infants with severe ICH have decreased cerebral oxygenation several weeks after the hemorrhage. The mechanisms involved in this state of decreased cerebral oxygenation in preterm infants and the effects on cerebral function are unknown. This longitudinal observation study will evaluate physiologic parameters to determine trends in cerebral oxygenation and function in preterm infants with ICH in comparison to infants without ICH.
To evaluate Pet AV-45 Amyloid imaging in the etiological diagnosis of primary non traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy and hypertension related hemorrhage).We hypothesize that patients with lobar hemorrhage (probably related to Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy) will have a greater AV45 cortical binding than patients with deep hemorrhage (probably related to hypertension).
This randomized controlled community-based trial will assess the effectiveness of administration of 800 mcg sublingual misoprostol with standard of care vs. placebo with standard of care for postpartum hemorrhage treatment at the community level, primarily home births attended by primary health care unit (PHU) staff in Etay El Barood and Kafr El Dawar districts (El Beheira governorate), Egypt. Standard of care per national guidelines in this setting is referral to a higher level health facility.
Study hypothesis: Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG)-directed primary prophylaxis with nonselective beta-blocker therapy (NSBB) leads to a reduction in first variceal bleeding episodes and is cost-effective in the long term. Study design: A multi-center randomized controlled study comparing nonselective beta-blocker therapy guided by the hemodynamic response as determined by the difference in HVPG before and after starting oral NSBB therapy, to standard heart rate-guided NSBB therapy in patients with esophageal varices due to liver cirrhosis without a history of esophageal variceal hemorrhage. Primary study parameters/outcome of the study: First variceal bleeding episodes occurring within the first two years. Secondary study parameters/outcome of the study: - Mortality - Occurrence of other cirrhosis-related complications - Occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma - Costs of treatments - Adverse effects
The objective of this multi-centre, randomized controlled trial is to investigate the outcome after induced hypertension versus no induced hypertension in patients with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and to assess whether induced hypertension results in improved cerebral blood flow (CBF) as measured by means of perfusion-CT.
