Filter by:This prospective observational follow-up study is designed to assess the long-term outcomes after Venous thromboembolism (VTE) and to assess the effect of the new oral anticoagulant (NOAC) rivaroxaban on the prevalence of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). The study will not be testing any formal hypothesis.
In patients with acute clots (deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism) the investigators will collect real world data on their short and long term outcomes. The investigators hypothesise that in patients treated from the outset with rivaroxaban that: 1. treatment will be non-inferior to treatment with conventional anticoagulants (heparins and warfarin); 2. there will be less bleeding than when patients are on conventional anticoagulants; 3. there will be a lower long-term incidence of morbidity from chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and post-thrombotic limb syndrome.
Examine the feasibility and efficacy of individually optimized uniform contrast enhancement in CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) for the diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolic disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate comparative efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban to standard of care in children with acute venous thromboembolism.
The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of dabigatran etexilate solution in children aged less than 1 year, to demonstrate comparable PK/PD relationship to older children and adults and to confirm dabigatran etexilate dosing algorithm for children aged less than 1 year.
This is a phase 4 cohort prospective, open, national, multicentre study that collects data on history of patients treated chronically with anticoagulant drugs, including the novel direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). The Registry is designed solely for observational purposes and is not intended to have any influence on the treatment of the single patients included. Patients are included when they start the anticoagulant treatment, whatever the drug used, or when they shift from a vitamin K antagonist (VKA) drug to one of the novel direct oral anticoagulants, provided that the therapy is expected to last at least 3 months. The general aims of the study are to provide a better evaluation of efficacy and safety of different treatment options, and to improve our understanding of the risks/benefits of the various anticoagulant drugs and the different therapy options. The Registry is open to the participation of clinical centres or individual professionals (now called Participants) that are involved with management of anticoagulated patients.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism in the critical ill patients, and at the same time, to find out the risk of venous thromboembolism and hemorrhage events occurred under the prophylaxis.
Following the findings of the clinical trials in drug development, this global non-interventional cohort field study will investigate rivaroxaban under clinical practice conditions in comparison with current standard of care for patients with acute venous thoromboembolism (VTE). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute VTE in routine clinical practice.
This research study is a prospective randomized trial evaluating the relative safety of two inferior vena cava (IVC) filters used to prevent the migration of potentially dangerous deadly blood clots from the legs to the lung in patients who cannot take blood thinners. All eligible patients will have been ordered to have a IVC filter placed by their primary medical team and filters will be placed in these patients whether or not they wish to participate in this trial as part of standard of care. The investigators will follow up with patients 30 days after IVC filter placement and ask them to come back for filter removal if medically appropriate. If removal is not medically appropriate in 30 days, the investigators will attempt to schedule removal every 30 days after initial placement. Primary outcome measures will be IVC filter complications such as filter penetration through the IVC wall and into other organs, filter tilt, filter migration, filter fracture and clots formed within the filter. All of these are reported complications of all IVC filters. The research also aims to improve the standard of care for IVC filter patient follow up as the FDA and Society of Interventional Radiology recommend that IVC filters be removed as soon as it is safe to do so. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that there is no significant difference in efficacy and complication rate between the Option and the Denali filter.
This open-label, single arm prospective cohort study will assess the safety of dabigatran etexilate in secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism in paediatric patients. Children from 0 to less than 18 years of age will be eligible to participate.
