Filter by:Major abdominal surgery for cancer is major risk factor for thromboembolism. Patients who undergo major abdominal surgery are prone to develop venous thromboembolism, both in the early postoperative period and after hospital discharger. There are strong recommendations in the international guidelines in favor to pharmacological thromboprophylaxis. Thus there is no consensus dor the duration of the prophylaxis. There are authors that suggest extended prophylaxis up to 4 week after surgery. On the other hand, there are prospective randomized trials that inpatient (short-term up to 7-10 days) prophylaxis is adequate.
This study is an extension of a planned quality improvement project that aims to promote standard of care by increasing the use of evidence-based clinical decision rules amongst emergency medicine providers in the University of Utah Emergency Department. Patient-specific information from the EHR will be used to recommend the use of relevant clinical decision rules to emergency medicine providers at the point-of-care. These recommendations will be in the form of non-interruptive alerts with one-click access to the suggested decision rules through the MDCalc Connect EHR add-on application. Specific aims of the study are to determine if 1) patient-specific non-interruptive alerts increase the use of clinical decision rules amongst emergency medicine providers and 2) an increase in the use of clinical decision rules affects provider ordering habits.
The RESOLVE-DVT study is a randomized single-center pilot study to determine the effects of hydroxyethylrutoside (Venoruton) on aspects of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) resolution associated with post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). Based on these results, the investigators will estimate its potential as a preventive therapy for PTS. Eligible consenting patients who develop an acute, objectively confirmed DVT will be randomized and equally allocated to two trial arms, either the treatment group (Venoruton tablet 500 mg twice daily) or the control group (usual care). The pilot trial consists of 5 study contacts over 12 weeks at which outcome assessment is performed: inclusion, 1 week, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks. Treatment allocation is masked for outcome assessors, but not for patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Apixaban, Warfarin and Aspirin Anticoagulation are effective and safe in Prevention of Portal Vein Thrombosis in Liver Cirrhotic Patients after Laparoscopic Splenectomy
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).
The goal of this study is to examine in vivo thrombosis characteristics with ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) and determine the relationship with thrombus resolution and postthrombotic syndrome (PTS) in patients with acute proximal Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
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.
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon venous-type of stroke tends to affect younger patients with somewhat different risk factors and much better outcome compared to arterial strokes. Anti-coagulation is the standard of treatment for patients with (CVT) initially with heparins followed by other oral blood thinners for several months. In this study, the investigators are comparing warfarin with another well-known blood thinner, rivaroxaban, which has a fixed once-daily dose with no need for monitoring in terms of clinical outcomes and complications.
This study aims to describe the incidence of catheter-related and non-catheter-related thrombosis in a population of adults in ICU and to assess its correlation with alteration of coagulation parameters.
Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection, responsible of COVID-19, is accompanied by many venous thromboembolic events. Antithrombotic treatment is the cornerstone of management of many neurovascular diseases (NVDs) and the benefit-risk ratio is crucial to avoid hemorrhagic complications. Therefore, in non-severe COVID-19 patients affected by NVDs, the diagnostic of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is challenging. Using bedside Doppler ultrasonography (DUS) of lower limbs, this study investigated the rates of DVT in these patients in stroke unit.
