Filter by:The goal of this study is to investigate the hemostatic balance in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) treated according to the ALLTogether1 protocol with focus on the early treatment period including concomitant use of steroids and asparaginase. The investigators aim to determine if complement proteins or microparticles can be used as clinically relevant predictive or diagnostic biomarkers for thrombosis and if global hemostatic assays can predict bleeding or thrombosis. Characterization of proteins connected to hemostasis before and during ALL treatment may provide pathophysiological insights regarding ALL- and treatment related coagulopathy. The ultimate goal of the study is to minimize the morbidity and mortality related to thrombosis and bleeding complications in children with ALL. Several pediatric oncology centers in Sweden will be participating in this study, which will enroll approximately 100 pediatric patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of a drug called tranexamic acid (TXA) on reducing blood loss in participants undergoing surgery to remove brain tumors. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does TXA 20 mg/kg IV bolus of TXA, and 1 mg/kg/hr infusion of TXA reduce the amount of estimated blood loss during surgery? 2. Does TXA 20 mg/kg IV bolus of TXA, and 1 mg/kg/hr infusion of TXA prevent re-operation, disability or death related to bleeding inside the head during and after surgery? Participants are randomized to receive 20 mg/kg IV bolus of TXA or matching placebo within 30 minutes of start of surger, and then 1 mg/kg/hr infusion of TXA or matching from the start of surgery to end of surgery. Treatment allocation is blinded. Investigator will compare the two treatment arms to see whether there are differences in the amount of blood loss during surgery and bleeding-related complications. Investigators will also monitor for any side effects of TXA.
Patients with colorectal polyps removed endoscopically (polypectomy, endoscopic mucosal resection, underwater endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic submucosal dissection) may experience delayed post polypectomy bleeding. The incidence is about one in 40 cases. There are risks factors for this complication, depending on the polyp type, patient demographics and co-morbidities and polypectomy technique. There are meta-analysis and nomograms for risk prediction available. We will try to predict delayed post polypectomy bleeding by using FIT (fecal immunochemical test), with a cut-off adapted to detect post polypectomy bleeding, administered daily for 2 weeks after polypectomy.
Background: Bleeding through the staple line has been reported as one of the most common staple-related complications in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of clips and omentopexy techniques on postoperative bleeding and readmissions during the first 30-days following surgery. Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled study, patients were divided into two groups: clips group and omentopexy group. The groups were compared in terms of postoperative decrease in hemoglobin and hematocrit values, preoperative and peroperative blood pressure values, duration of surgery, number of patients requiring erythrocyte suspension (ES) transfusion, length of hospital stay, hospital readmissions in the first 30-days postoperatively and early postoperative complications.

Central venous catheters are essential when administering treatment for hematological conditions. Many patients have a decreased platelet count which increases the risk for bleeding complications. Baarle et al. recently published a randomized controlled study where withholding prophylactic platelet transfusions before CVC placement in patients with a platelet count of 10,000 to 50,000 per cubic millimeter did not meet the predefined margin for non-inferiority for postprocedural bleeding events (PMID: 37224197). However, bleedings grade 2 (defined as bleeding that requires external compression) were included despite lacking clinical significance. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether lowering the preprocedural platelet transfusion trigger from 50x10^9/L to 10x10^9/L for insertions of central venous catheters remains safe with regards to postprocedural bleeding events of grade 3-4.
OCCLUDE is a prospective, post-approval, open-label, single arm, multi-center US registry of patients who undergo embolization with Obsidio™ Conformable Embolic. The purpose of this Registry is to assess effectiveness and safety outcomes of subjects who undergo embolization with Obsidio.
PLTS-1 is a multicentre, randomized, controlled, pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 2 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT to determine the non-inferiority of cold-stored platelets compared to conventional platelets with respect to hemostatic effectiveness (total number of allogeneic blood products transfused within 24 hours after CPB), as well as safety.
Endobronchial bleeding is a common complication of bronchoscopy. Major bleeding, although rare, can be life threatening and often requires advanced therapeutic interventional pulmonary procedures which are not widely available. Minor bleeding can negatively impact outcomes such as diagnostic yield, sample size and bronchoscopy duration. Both adrenaline and tranexamic acid are successfully used topically for hemostasis during diagnostic bronchoscopy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of prophylactically applied adrenaline and tranexamic acid in bleeding prevention during diagnostic bronchoscopy.
This study is designed to evaluate the effect of early albumin transfusion within massive transfusion protocol on fluid balance and reduced requirement of transfusion.
