Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that rivaroxaban is superior to placebo for reducing the risk of the primary composite outcome as defined by objectively confirmed symptomatic lower extremity proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT), asymptomatic lower extremity proximal DVT, symptomatic lower extremity distal DVT, symptomatic upper extremity DVT, symptomatic non-fatal pulmonary embolism (PE), incidental PE, and venous thromboembolism (VTE)-related death in ambulatory adult participants with various cancer types receiving systemic cancer therapy who are at high risk of developing a VTE.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of infrared thermal imaging in adjunctive diagnostic screening for lower limb deep venous thrombosis (DVT).
To assess the real-world safety/effectiveness of Eliquis in Korean venous thromboembolism (VTE) patients and patient characteristics that are associated with bleeding among patients taking Eliquis. To identify factors that might be associated with the safety and effectiveness profile in Korean VTE patients.
The principal aim of the present research is to compare two methods of antibiotic delivery: concomitant tumescent antibiotic delivery (TAD) and intravenous antibiotic delivery (IVAD) versus IVAD alone, (TAD+IVAD vs IVAD), with respect to the prevention of surgical site infections (SSI). The investigators hypothesize that TAD+IVAD will significantly reduce the incidence of SSI compared to IVAD. TAD is the subcutaneous infiltration of a dilute solution of antibiotic(s) in a solution of tumescent local anesthesia (TLA). TLA consists of a dilute solution of lidocaine (1gm/L), epinephrine (1mg/L) and sodium bicarbonate (10mEq/L) in 0.9% physiologic saline. A secondary aim of this study is to compare TAD+IVAD vs IVAD with respect to the prevention of post-operative venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Background Enoxaparin is a commonly used low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for the treatment of neonatal and children thrombosis that is monitored with anti-factor Xa (anti-Xa) levels. However, this therapeutic range of anti-Xa (0.5 - 1.0 u/ml) was extrapolated from adult studies. The burden of pain to neonates due to venipunctures and of resources to the health care system also warrants an evidence-based review to assess the utility of monitoring LMWH therapy with anti-Xa levels. Methods/Design This is a prospective pilot, feasibility and safety multicenter, randomized controlled trial to compare the approach of treating thrombosis in neonates and children with enoxaparin using weight adjusted fixed dose to variable dose titrated to maintain a pre-determined anti-Xa range (0.5-1.0 u/mL). We plan to recruit 20 neonates and children over the study period, who will be randomized within their first week of anti-coagulation treatment. Key feasibility outcomes include screening/recruitment ratio, monthly recruitment rate, and completeness of data collection. We will also measure the safety outcome of bleeding as well as comment on efficacy of resolution of thrombosis as a secondary outcome. Discussion The administration of weight adjusted fixed dose of enoxaparin without anti-Xa monitoring has the potential to reduce pain from multiple venipunctures in neonates and children as well as resources used in their already complex care. The results of the FiXET trial will set the framework for a larger multicenter randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy of administering enoxaparin to neonates and children without monitoring to the current conventional approach of routine monitoring with anti-Xa levels.
Objectives of the study are: To estimate the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in a cohort of women with suspected ovarian cancer and evaluate changes in the coagulation system in case of benign or malignant disease. The impact of changes in the coagulation system on disease prognosis will be evaluated.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of thromboprophylactic doses of LMWH enoxaparin in postoperative CABG patients, drug is administered either as a continuous intravenous infusion (CIV) or subcutaneous bolus (SCB) once per 72h. Plasma anti-Xa values are measured 12-14 times during study period and concentration maximums calculated to enable comparison of anti-Xa values between administration routes.
To assess the safety and descriptive efficacy of apixaban in pediatric subjects requiring anticoagulation for the treatment of a VTE.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the frequencey and the determinants of postpartum major complications (hemorrhage and thrombosis) up to 3 months after delivery in the maternity hospitals of Finistère (Bretagne - France)
Until now there ist no systematic investigation of the pharmacokinetic parameters of Rivaroxaban in obese patient undergoing bariatric surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of rivaroxaban in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery. Patients receive the day before the surgical intervention the first dose of Rivaroxaban (10mg). During the following 24 hours, 9 blood samples are taken. The second tablet Rivaroxaban is administered on the third postoperative day, followed again by 9 blood samples during the next 24 hours. All other blood samples are taken independent from this clinical trial as part of the standard medical treatment during the hospitalization. The hospital stay will not be extended by the study. The outpatient regular follow-up takes place one month after surgery and is combined with the last study visit.
