Filter by:Background: In stroke patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), presence and high number of strictly lobar cerebral microbleeds (compatible with cerebral amyloid angiopathy, CAA) seems to be associated with increased risk of hemorrhagic transformation, symptomatic hemorrhagic transformation, remote hemorrhage, and poor functional outcome. Some of these reported CAA patients with cerebral microbleeds also had chronic lobar intracerebral haemorrhage. Few data is available on IVT-treated CAA patients showing cortical superficial siderosis. There are no reports studying factors associated with brain hemorrhagic complication or functional outcome inside a group of IVT-treated CAA patients. Our aim was to evaluate brain hemorrhagic complications on 24h-CT and functional outcome after IVT in stroke patients with CAA features on pre-IVT MRI. Methods: In our stroke center, IVT decision in patients with CAA MRI features is left at the discretion of the treating physician. We retrospectively screened pre-IVT imaging of 959 consecutive IVT-treated stroke patients (between January 2015 and July 2022) without ongoing anticoagulation therapy for probable CAA MRI features defined by modified Boston criteria. After exclusion of 119 patients with lacking MRI (n=47), with MRI showing motion artefacts (n=49) or with alternative chronic brain hemorrhage cause on MRI (n=23), 15 IVT-treated patients with probable CAA on pre-IVT MRI were identified. In these 15 patients, clinical, biological and MRI characteristics were compared between patients with vs. without post-IVT hemorrhage and between patients with poor (MRS 3-6) vs. good (MRS 0-2) functional outcome at discharge.
This study is a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a clinician-facing implementation strategy on the use of medication optimization (defined as either discontinuation of all antiplatelet therapy or initiation of and adherence to a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)) to reduce upper GI bleeding risk in patients prescribed anticoagulant-antiplatelet therapy (AAT) relative to usual care.
Heavy bleeding after childbirth, known as a postpartum haemorrhage (PPH), causes about 70,000 maternal deaths every year. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a lifesaving treatment for women with PPH. The I'M WOMAN trial is a research study to see whether giving TXA just before childbirth will stop women developing PPH. The trial will assess the effects of intramuscular (IM) and intravenous (IV) tranexamic acid on PPH, side effects and other important maternal health outcomes.
Under the premise of basic treatment, to explore the improvement effect of huperzine A injection on short-term and long-term neurocognitive dysfunction in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage after interventional/surgical treatment.
A Randomized Controlled Non inferiority Trial will be conducted to see the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of S-Condom Uterine Tamponade in women with atraumatic PPH and not responding to first line of treatment.
Remazolam besylate was used for sedation during endoscopic hemostasis in patients with esophageal and gastric varices rupture and bleeding in liver cirrhosis. The onset time, recovery time and incidence of adverse reactions were observed.
Objective: To explore the predictive value of characteristic disorder of intestinal flora for clinical prognosis in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Secondary objectives: 1) To investigate the correlation of gut microbiota and its serological indicators with imaging features and clinical neurological deficits in ICH; 2) Dynamically observe the changes of human microbiome and its serological indicators after ICH, and explore the biomarkers based on human microbiome related to disease changes.
Guided by clinical problems, this study focused on the problems encountered in clinical practice, with the interventional treatment of emergency gastrointestinal bleeding as the breakthrough point, and focused on the dilemma of treatment selection for patients with negative angiography in gastrointestinal bleeding. At present, there is no report on relevant clinical and basic research on the selection of treatment strategies for patients with negative ANVUGIB angiography. Whether prophylactic arterial embolization can benefit patients and whether it can reduce mortality is an urgent clinical problem to be solved.
Lower extremity amputation patients represent a frail group of patients with extensive comorbidity. The most common indication of amputation is ischemia, infection and concomitant ischemic pain due to underlying chronic disease, especially arteriosclerosis and diabetes. Prolonged general anesthesia and surgery as well as increased blood loss may result in impaired patient safety. Previous studies have shown total blood loss approx. 1000 mL in transfemoral amputations (TFA). Substantial blood loss during surgery increases the risk of anemic complications and death for this already weakened patient group. The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to improve patient safety by exploring the possibility of a more precautious surgical procedure for TFA. Hence, investigating the total blood loss and secondary differences in complications after TFA between patients operated with use of pneumatic tourniquet versus no tourniquet. Total blood loss is calculated via Nadlers approach. From a pilot series, sample size was calculated to 124, allocated 1:1 in two groups of 62 participants, to ensure detection of at least 200 mL difference in total blood loss. The hypothesis is that use of tourniquet will decrease the total blood loss, the amount of blood transfusions, time of surgery and complications related to postoperative anemia without a higher rate of adverse events. The secondary and explorative outcomes are blood transfusions, intraoperative blood loss, length of stay, time of surgery, risk of readmission, risk of re-operation, risk of mortality, complications during admission, quality of life (QoL), prosthesis use and the prosthesis-specific survey Prothesis Evaluation Questionnaire (PEQ). QoL is measured with the validated questionnaire EQ-5D-5L preoperatively, and at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The possibility to enhance patient safety is highly relevant, and this trial will aid in establishing evidence-based guidelines for TFA surgery.
This is an observational study based on data collected via an audit of electronic medical charts. The study population will include adult US patients treated with andexanet alfa or 4F-PCC during a hospitalization for an anticoagulation-related major bleed, and their characteristics, treatments and outcomes will be described.
