Filter by:The Rhea-study is a multicenter prospective diagnostic proof-of-concept study There is an unquestionable need for improved diagnostic approaches for (incidental) SVT. The researchers plan to evaluate the MRDTI technique, that has been shown to be accurate in other settings of difficult-to-diagnosis venous thrombosis, for the notoriously challenging diagnosis of incidental SVT. This study targets an important unmet need and will provide the basis for precision medicine for patients with SVT in the near future, i.e. the possibility of assessment of the age of the thrombus in patients with incidental SVT, which is of utmost importance for determination of the indication for anticoagulant therapy. If this hypothesis is proven true, i.e. sensitivity of MRDTI for SVT is indeed >90%, the investigators will proceed with performing a randomized controlled outcome study in which patients with possible/probable chronic SVT with normal MRDTI test results and no other indications for anticoagulant therapy. These patients will be randomized between active therapeutically dosed anticoagulation versus no anticoagulation, to compare clinical outcome with regard to the occurrence of venous thromboembolism and/or Progressive symptomatic SVT as well as major bleeding.
This is a single-center, single-arm, open-label study that includes patients meeting the inclusion criteria (liver-GTV volume < 700ml or estimated liver-GTV V5 < 300ml) with hepatocellular carcinoma with diffuse tumor thrombosis involving both left and right lobes. All lesions receive moderate-dose hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy, with a gross tumor dose of 25Gy/5f, and a maximum dose of 35Gy/5f at the tumor center. One week before or during the radiotherapy, patients receive concurrent Pembrolizumab at a dose of 200mg. Subsequently, Pembrolizumab is administered intravenously every 3 weeks. Follow-up examinations are conducted 1-3 months post-radiotherapy. Lenvatinib 4mg may be used for maintenance therapy with Pembrolizumab if there are no contraindications. Maintenance therapy is continued until disease progression or intolerance. The primary endpoint is median overall survival (mOS), and secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and toxicity.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the efficacy of rivaroxaban treatment for intracardiac thrombi resolution in pediatric patients (< 16 years old) diagnosed with intracardiac thrombosis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does rivaroxaban treatment resolve the thrombosis during a 3-month treatment? Participants already taking rivaroxaban as part of their regular medical care for thrombosis resolution. They will undergo monthly visits to check that the treatment is progressing correctly and that no major bleeding has occurred. After 3 months of treatment, they will repeat the radiological imaging investigation to verify the actual resolution of the thrombosis.
Patients who have a peripherally-inserted central catheter (PICC) placed are at a risk of developing a deep vein thrombosis (DVT). At TriHealth, approximately 2-4 patients per month who have a PICC placed experience a subsequent DVT. One innovative way to possibly mitigate the risk of DVTs is hand grip exercises. The current study will be the first study to evaluate hand grip exercises for the prevention of DVTs in adult patients hospitalized in the United States.
Multicenter longitudinal observational ambispective (retrospective cases from 2014 and prospective from 2018 onwards) cohort study. The registry recruits a series of consecutive patients admitted for moderate-high risk or high-risk pulmonary embolism (according to 2019 European Society of Cardiology guidelines) treated invasively. This study aims to describe the acute management of the safety and effectiveness of different percutaneous interventions for acute pulmonary embolism.
This study aims to investigate (1) the de novo cerebral microembolization in patients who undergo transcatheter closure of PFO or ASD, and (2) evaluate the relationship between de novo cerebral microembolization and in situ thrombus within PFO.
Compare the safety and efficacy of a twice-daily Clopidogrel regimen vs. Ticagrelor in reducing major adverse events in patients undergoing primary PCI in a double-blind randomized controlled trial.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in cell-to-cell communication. They are small vesicles that contain rich molecular cargo. Recently, they have been proposed as biomarkers for clinical diagnostics. EVs include three classes: small EVs (exosomes), large EVs (microparticles), and apoptotic bodies. Platelet-derived EVs (PEVs) are the most abundant class in human blood and can actively participate in numerous physiological and pathological processes. The information about the role of platelet exosomes in cardiovascular disease and the effect of antiplatelet agents on their release and content is very limited.
Prospective single-centre, observational study with medical products. Patients with a medical history of SVT will be observed for at least 24 months after inclusion. The study will begin when the patient is referred to our centre for SVT and will end at the 24-month follow-up or at the occurrence of a study outcome event, or in case of Death OBJECTIVE: To prospectively define the incidence of recurrent thrombosis and bleeding events during anticoagulant therapy in patients with diagnosed SVT, regardless of whether they will be hospitalized or treated as outpatients
Background: venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication in critically ill patients, admitted to the Intensive Care Units (ICUs). At the present time, there is no validated score to estimate risks and benefits of antithrombotic pharmacological prophylaxis in this subset of patients. Results of a pilot study showed that ultrasound (US) screening for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is associated with a reduced incidence of proximal DVT, up front to an overall increased discovery rate of DVTs. The reduced incidence of proximal DVT could be attributed to an early diagnosis of distal and muscular DVTs, which would eventually receive a more adequate management. Proximal DVTs are associated with a worse long-term prognosis than distal or muscular DVTs, so it can be hypothesized that the active US screening could lead to an improvement of in-hospital and long-term prognosis of patients admitted to the ICU. Aim of the study: to test whether an active US screening may reduce the incidence of proximal DVT and improve the in-hospital and long-term prognosis of patients admitted to the ICU. Expected relevance: systematic screening for DVT could improve the management of the pharmacological antithrombotic treatment, leading to a reduction of thromboembolic and bleeding complications. This will eventually lead to an improved in-hospital and long-term prognosis.
