View clinical trials related to Venous Thromboembolism.
Filter by:In patients with symptoms of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) (mainly deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE)), the study will evaluate the agreement between the D-Dimer measurements from the LumiraDx POC D-Dimer assay and a reference method, as an aid in diagnosis, assessment and exclusion of DVT and PE.
Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale replication of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of individual dose adjustment of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) based on the results of the thrombodynamics test (TD) in patients at extremely high risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE). This is a single-center, open-label, randomized clinical study with a blinded assessor for primary efficacy outcome. Patients after elective or emergent major surgery having 10 or more Caprini scores at the baseline, who already received two subcutaneous injections of enoxaparin: 40 mg at 6-12 hours after the surgery ("key injection 1") and 40 mg at 12 hours after the previous injection ("key injection 2"), who had no VTE at the baseline, and who signed informed consent, are subjected to laboratory examination by the TD. Blood samples are taken 12 hours after the "key injection 1" and 24 hours after the "key injection 2". If one of the relevant parameters of the TD (initial velocity of clot growth rate and clot size) exceeds the set threshold, the Caprini scores are recalculated adding 3 points for "other thrombophilic state" confirmed by the thrombodynamics. The patient may be included in the study if the new sum exceeds 13 points (initial 10 scores + additional 3 scores). Within 60 hours from the surgery, the included patients are randomly allocated to one of two groups: Experimental or Control. Patients in the Control group continue to receive the standard dose of enoxaparin 40 mg every 24 hours (once daily). In the Experimental group, the dose of enoxaparin is increased to 30 mg every 12 hours (twice daily). Blood samples for TD are taken during the next two days at 24 hours after the administration of each daily dose of enoxaparin. A whole leg duplex ultrasound scan (DUS) is performed in all patients during the screening period and at 7-10 days after the surgery or in case of any suspicion for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or superficial vein thrombosis (SVT). Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is carried out in any clinical suspicion for pulmonary embolism (PE). An autopsy is performed in all dead patients. The total follow-up period is 30 days. After discharge, patients are invited to the hospital for clinical examination with DUS or interviewed by phone to identify symptomatic VTE.
The investigators aimed to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of patient-completed CRS in hospitalized patients and to evaluate whether this form can be widely used in clinical practice instead of only health care workers' evaluation.
The Michelle trial is expected to provide high-quality evidence around the role of extended thromboprophylaxis in COVID-19 and will help guide medical decisions in clinical practice.
The WHITE study is a multicenter, multinational, investigators-initiated, observational, prospective study conducted in a consecutive series of ambulatory patients who had completed the recommended or practicable period of anticoagulation after a first-ever episode of venous thromboembolism (VTE) The general aim of the study is to evaluate the distribution of decisions and of the reasons guiding the physician's decision on the modality to manage the secondary prevention of VTE in patients treated for a first-ever episode of VTE, after the initial 3-12 months of anticoagulant therapy.
This is a Phase 2 safety and tolerability trial that will take place in two parts. Part one of the trial will determine the tolerability of the OsciPulse device on healthy subjects who wear the device for up to three hours. Healthy volunteers will answer questionnaires and may undergo an ultrasound test at the end of their participation in the trial. Part two of the trial will determine the safety and tolerability of the OsciPulse device on subjects admitted to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center. Eligible subjects will be enrolled for 6 hours. In the first 3 hours, subjects will wear the standard of care intermittent pneumatic compression device or the OsciPulse device. In the second 3 hours, the subject's device will be switched and subjects will wear the alternate device not used in the first 3 hours. Subjects will answer questionnaires and may undergo an ultrasound at the end of the first 3 hours and at the end of the second 3 hours (at hour 6).
This study is a retrospective analysis of observational cohorts using data from prospectively collected administrative/claims data to investigate treatment patterns,healthcare resource utilisation (HCRU), direct and indirect costs (where feasible), and safety and effectiveness outcomes in patients with VTE and active cancer or patients with VTE and history of cancer who initiate anticoagulant treatment with a VKA, LMWH or NOACs.
