Filter by:A prospective study of individuals without varicose veins and who have primary varicose veins to assess the morbidity, risk factors and natural course of chronic lower limb vein disease.
An estimated 22% of the global population is at an increased risk of a severe form of COVID-19, while one in four coronavirus patients admitted to intensive care unit will develop a pulmonary embolism. A major public health question remains to be investigated: why COVID-19 is mild for some, critically severe for others and why only a percentage of COVID-19 patients develop thrombosis, despite the disease's proven hypercoagulable state? Patients' intrinsic characteristics might be responsible for the deep variety of disease forms. Our study aims to assess the validity of the hypothesis according to which underlining genetic variations might be responsible for different degrees of severity and thrombotic events risks in the novel coronavirus disease. Moreover, we suspect that prothrombotic genotypes occuring in the genes that encode angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-DEL/INS) and angiotensinogen (AGT M235T) are involved in the unpredictable evolution of COVID-19, both in terms of severity and thrombotic events, due to the strong interactions of SARS-CoV-2 with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Therefore, we also aim to assess the validity of the theory according to which there is a pre-existing atypical modulation of RAAS in COVID-19 patients that develop severe forms and/or thrombosis. Our hypothesis is based on various observations. Firstly, there is a substantial similarity with a reasonably related condition such as sepsis, for which there is a validated theory stating that thrombophilic mutations affect patients' clinical response. Secondly, racial and ethnic genetic differences are responsible for significant dissimilar thrombotic risks among various nations. Thirdly, an increase in stroke incidence has been reported in young patients with COVID-19, without essential thrombosis risk factors, favoring the idea that a genetic predisposition could contribute to increase the thrombotic and thromboembolic risk. Fourthly, the plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 4G/5G inherited mutation was found to be responsible for a thrombotic state causing post-SARS osteonecrosis.
Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is one of the most frequent metabolic diseases worldwide. It is expected that in 2035 around 600 million people will suffer from the disease. A recent systematic review has estimated that the direct annual cost of Diabetes worldwide treatments and care is over $ 827 billion and has been independently associated with nosocomial complications, thrombosis-like infections and prolonged admissions. In addition, it is estimated that up to 90% of patients in acute hospitals require a peripheral venous catheter which are associated at the same time with mechanical, infectious and thrombotic acute complications. Recently the emergence of new medium-sized peripheral devices (Midline®) and new peripheral central venous access catheters (PICC), which are more biocompatible, are opening new clinical possibilities with the aim of improving safety and comfort during treatment time and the reduction of associated complications. With all this, a observational case-control study has been proposed in order to analyze the impact of T2DM disease and its associated complications on the patient requiring peripheral venous access. Furthermore investigators will consider if these new peripheral devices can be a remarkable benefit for these patients. This study will be carried out at the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain
The purpose of this study is to assess validity of extended duplex ultrasound examination for diagnosis of proximal deep vein thrombosis performed by general intensive care unit nurses in the critically ill patients.
The aim of study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Apixaban in patients with acute deep venous thrombosis and active malignancy compared with weight adjusted subcutaneous (LMWH). It was hypothesised that Apixaban could be as effective as rivaroxiban and edoxaban in treatment of patients with acute DVT and active malignancy with a lower risk of bleeding especially in those with GIT cancer.
A randomized controlled trial to study the efficacy and safety of Dabigatran in Cirrhotic patients who develop PVT.In this study the patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized to either receive Dabigatran or placebo [multivitamin tablet]. Blood samples will be taken &Imaging will be done accordingly to notice progression or recanalization of PVT.The patients are followed up every 2 months up to 18 month .Then statistical analysis will be done to find whether the Dabigatran is efficacious in cirrhotic patients for recanalization of PVT.
The JETi Registry is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center study to collect real-world data on the safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the JETi® Peripheral Thrombectomy System (JETi System) for the treatment of acute/subacute thrombosis in the peripheral vasculature. This post-market study will register approximately 280 subjects at approximately 30 centers in the US and Europe. Subjects participating in this registry will be followed through their 12-month follow up visit.
Patients with COVID-19 in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) or hospitalized with severe form have a poor prognosis (almost 30% rate of death). They present often a high cardiovascular risk profile (almost 30% of hypertension and 19% of diabetes). Troponin has been described to be elevated in a high proportion of patients (one fifth of all patients and 50% of non-survivors) suggesting the possibility of cardiomyopathies. High levels of DDimers (81% of non survivors) and fibrin degradation products are also associated with increased risk of mortality suggesting also the possibility of venous thromboembolism. Therefore, screening for cardiomyopathies and venous thromboembolism could represent an important challenge for patients with COVID-19 management.
The main objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of aspirin, low molecule heparin and rivaroxaban for preventing catheter-related thrombosis in middle-to-high-risk ambulatory patients with cancer and implantable venous access ports.
This study will involve blood draws to test for specific cytokines. The study goal is to gain a better understanding of the role of inflammatory response in the development of specific complications in burn and TENS patients.
