Filter by:Prospective validation of an age-adjusted D-dimer cut-off to rule out deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
PRESERVE is a multi-center, prospective, open-label, non-randomized investigation of commercially available IVC filters from 6 manufacturers placed in subjects for the prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE). This study will enroll up to 1,800 IVC filter subjects (with a maximum of 300 subjects per IVC filter brand) at up to 60 sites in the US. The primary objective of this investigational device exemption (IDE) clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the commercially available IVC filters (retrievable and permanent) in subjects with clinical need for mechanical prophylaxis of PE with an IVC filter.
Emergency Medicine (EM) Residents routinely conduct bedside ultrasound exams in the Emergency Department (ED) employing the two point compression method. This study endeavors to investigate the accuracy and utility of bedside ultrasound for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in the ED by EM Residents by comparing the results of that exam against the gold standard of a DVT ultrasound performed in the Radiology Department and interpreted by a Radiologist.
The purpose of the study is to prove equivalence of efficacy and safety of BCD-080 and Clexan for deep vein thrombosis and embolism prophylaxis at orthopedic surgeries.
This study is to further develop and optimise the design and manufacturing process of a handheld device to monitor and manage Warfarin (blood thinning anticoagulation drug) therapy. The device comprises of a handheld instrument and a disposable test strip and reports how blood coagulation is working in terms of standardised units called International Normalised Ratio (INR). A single drop of fresh whole blood and plasma will be added to the strip and the INR result displayed on the instrument. Blood samples are to be collected from patients attending a hospital based INR clinic who are on Warfarin Therapy. The samples are to be used in a series of experiments in the laboratory to test the Microvisk POC INR Monitors accuracy, precision, stability and robustness.
Caribbean Hispanics are a population with a disproportionately high prevalence of cardio-metabolic disorders but with a limited expectation of benefits from current pharmacogenetic algorithms derived mainly in subjects of relatively pure ancestry. The investigators focus on warfarin responses to develop urgently-needed DNA-driven prescription guidelines for this population, who have arisen from European, West African and Amerindian genomic origins to produce a highly heterogeneous population. Our project combines admixture analysis and DNA-sequencing with development of more accurate rules for better predictability of warfarin dosing to immediately serve this medically underserved population.
The primary objective of the study is to report adverse events of on-treatment AEs by the treating physicians during a specified 24-month study period in patients with venous thromboembolism at the sentinel site(s) for the National Center of Pharmacovigilance (CNFV) in Mexico.
Patients with cancer have a high risk of deep vein thrombosis which often develops in the veins of the lower limbs. The initial evaluation of clinically suspected deep vein thrombosis includes the estimation of the clinical probability by calculating risk scores such as the Wells score and the measurement of the D-dimer. However, the usefulness and accuracy of the clinical scores and d-dimer test are lower in patients with cancer who often undergo unnecessary (serial) ultrasonography. The aim of the current study is to analyze variables that predict the presence of thrombosis and may improve the accuracy of the Wells score. In addition, various cut-off of the d-dimer will be evaluated with the goal of improving the sensibility and specificity of the test.
This is the first evaluation of edoxaban in pediatric subjects. In this Phase 1 study, a single dose of edoxaban will be given to pediatric subjects who require anticoagulant therapy to see what the body does to the drug (pharmacokinetics) and what the drug does to the body (pharmacodynamics), and to compare if these effects are similar to those observed in adults.
Patients with a history of blood clots are at risk of developing additional clots in the future. Doctors use a tool called a clinical decision rule to tell them how likely it is that a patient has a blood clot and if they should have further testing to look for the clot. This tool may cause doctors to over-diagnosis a recurrent clot because the symptoms may be left over from the previous clot. Correctly diagnosing a recurrent blood clot is very important since there are risks associated with both over-diagnosis and under-diagnosis. If a recurrent blood clot is missed (under-diagnosis) the patient is at risk of death from a clot in the lungs. If blood thinners are prescribed when they are not needed (over-diagnosis), the patient may have to take blood thinners for their lifetime and risk having serious bleeding.
