Assessment of the Impact of TIP Score on Thromboprophylaxis in Patients

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Traumatic lesions are the leading causes of admission to the emergency center (39%), isolated non-surgical lower limbs trauma are in the foreground. Two recent meta-analyzes suggest the value of Low Molecular Weight Heparins (LMWH) which would reduce symptomatic Thromboembolism Events (TE) in patients with lower limb trauma. However, many recent studies conclude to the need of stratifying the TE risk according to the patient and the nature of his trauma to obtain an individualized therapeutic decision.

The retrospectively established L-TRIP (cast) score allows stratification of the risk without taking into account the type of trauma. The TIP score (Trauma, Immobilization and Patient) was established by consensus of international experts via the Delphi method.

We suggest that the application of the TIP score to rationalize indications of thromboprophylaxis in patients with isolated non-surgical trauma of a lower limb should reduce the rate of anticoagulation prescription without increasing the risk of symptomatic thromboembolic complications with a direct benefit for patients and medico-economic for the society.

Clinical Trial Description

All patients admitted to the Emergency Departments for a nonsurgical isolated lower limb trauma necessitating rigid or semi-rigid immobilization, will be assessed for possible participation.

After the physicians had obtained the no-opposition of the patient, they will fill a questionnaire. This questionnaire includes the treatment chosen by the physician, the type of trauma, the type of immobilization chosen, and the patient's thromboembolic risk factors in order to calculate the TIP and L-TRIP (cast) scores retrospectively.

Phone follow-up will occur within 3 months to gather clinical event data (any signs of VTE, any bleeding events). ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
