Filter by:This is a 3-phase mixed methods study design. A literature review (Phase 1) has been completed to determine the areas of exploration and to identify challenges faced and the impact of the blood disorder on pediatric patients. Based on Phase 1, Phases 2 and 3, as proposed in this study, will be completed and will include interviews of patients diagnosed with bleeding and thrombotic disorders (phase 2). The interviews will be individual, semi-structured, and consist of open-ended questions to elicit unbiased and in-depth responses to gain an understanding of participant's perspectives on themes predetermined in the study design phase.
This is a multi-centered, prospective, observational study aimed at observing the Incidence Rate of Perioperiative VTE in Colorectal Cancer Patients
The study will evaluate the effectiveness of a novel, real-time risk prediction model for identifying pediatric patients at risk for developing in-hospital blood clots (or venous thromboembolism [VTE]) based on data easily extracted from the electronic medical record. The study will assess whether using the risk percentages for developing VTE derived from the model increases the number of high-risk patients screened by the pediatric hematology team, which may may lead to an overall reduction in the number of pediatric VTEs seen at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is now a leading cause of death among U.S. adults. In addition to profound respiratory and multi-organ failure, hypercoagulable states and venous thromboembolism (VTE) have been increasingly reported in patients with severe Covid-19. The aim of this study is evaluate the risk of VTE related to Covid-19 infection in a real-world community-based population.
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that enoxaparin efficacy is reduced in severe nephrotic syndrome. Another purpose is to compare two dosing regimens.
Despite their usefulness in perioperative and acute care settings, factor-Xa inhibitors-specific assays are scarcely available, contrary to heparin anti-Xa assay. The investigators aimed at assessing whether the widely used heparin anti-Xa assay can quantify the apixaban, rivaroxaban, fondaparinux and danaparoid levels.
Subcutaneous enoxaparin is currently the gold standard for VTE chemoprophylaxis. However, the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis with subcutaneous enoxaparin is affected by patient-level factors, thus, resulting in VTE events despite guideline-compliant prophylaxis. A population at particular risk is the growing number of patients who undergo autologous breast reconstruction. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) might be a less invasive, yet, more efficacious mode of chemoprophylaxis in this patient population. Hence, the proposed work has the potential to cause a paradigm shift in chemoprophylaxis guidelines in a large population of patients undergoing plastic surgery.
This is a prospective, twin-center, cohort study in patients discharged from the hospital after major abdominal or pelvic cancer surgery for cancer. This study is designed to evaluate the adherence to extended deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis (DVT) with the direct oral anticoagulant apixaban on the background of historical data from the investigator's center on low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) substandard adherence in the same setting.
The aim of the study is to investigate the existence of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in patients with a history of venous thromboembolism. The study investigators make the assumption that these patients present mutations involved in CHIP occurrence.
Researcher in this study want to compare the effectiveness of Rivaroxaban (Xarelto) versus low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and phenprocoumon for the treatment and secondary prevention of venous thromboembolism by evaluating routine clinical practice data from research database in Germany. VTE is defined by a blood clot in the leg or lower extremity (deep vein thrombosis) or a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism). Treatment of VTE traditionally consists of acute anticoagulation treatment with heparin (mainly LMWH), followed by maintenance oral anticoagulation with vitamin-K antagonists (in Germany mainly phenprocoumon). Rivaroxaban, a direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOAC), is an alternative VTE treatment and has been approved for both the acute and maintenance phase of VTE treatment. The study will enroll adult male or female patients who are newly diagnosed with VTE and are already on the treatment with Rivaroxaban or LMWH and phenprocoumon. Researchers are especially interested whether patients experience under treatment any VTE events or fatal bleedings.
