Filter by:This is a multi-center prospective cohort study of patients with first-episode deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.
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.
The AV-MDR is a prospective, non-randomized, open-label, multi-center registry. The purpose of the AV-MDR study is to proactively collect and evaluate clinical data on the usage of the devices in scope within their intended use with the aim of confirming safety and performance throughout their expected lifetime, ensuring the continued acceptability of identified risks, detecting emerging risks on the basis of factual evidence, ensuring the continued acceptability of the benefit-risk ratio, and identifying possible systematic misuse or off-label usage such that the intended use can be verified as appropriate.
- There is a knowledge gap associated with the management of patients with COVID-19 lung injury and a laboratory picture compatible with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Clinical data to date support that COVID-19 is associated with a prothrombotic state that is not simply explained by an influx of more critically ill individuals. - These patients suffer from severe respiratory failure; hypoxemia and ventilator dependence are the primary concerns; ARDS with respiratory failure is frequently the cause of death. Macroscopic and probable microvascular thromboembolic events are a major concern in this population. - When DIC is associated with COVID-19, it predicts a very poor prognosis. - This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of low-dose IV bolus tenecteplase (TNK) together with anticoagulation compared with control patients on therapeutic anticoagulation alone in hospitalized adults diagnosed with COVID-19 and acute intermediate-risk PE. - Prospective, multicenter, randomized two-arm trial enrolling consecutive patients who meet enrollment criteria. - The study will generate evidence that low-dose TNK together with anticoagulation is beneficial in these patients
Novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a major international public health concern. While much of the morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19 has been attributed to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or end-organ failure, emerging data suggest that disorders of coagulation, in particular hypercoagulability and venous thromboembolism (VTE), may represent an additional major, and possibly preventable, complication (Wu C, et al. JAMA Intern Med. 2020 Mar 13. [Epub ahead of print] and Tang N, et al. Thromb. Haemost. 2020 Feb 19. [EPub Ahead of Print]). Abnormal coagulation testing results, especially markedly elevated D-dimer and FDP, have been associated with a poor prognosis in COVID-19 infection. We propose the following Electronic Health Record (EHR)-guided 10000-patient, retrospective observational cohort study to assess VTE incidence, risk factors, prevention and management patterns, and thrombotic outcomes in patients with COVID-19 infection. In order to gain the valuable perspective of other regional and national centers providing care for large populations of COVID-19, we have started a collaborative network with 5 additional sites which will provide us with de-identified data from 1000 patients each. These 5000 patients in addition to the 5000-patient cohort we are enrolling within the Mass General Brigham Network will comprise this study population.
Domestic and international guidelines for the management of pulmonary embolism have suggested that the standard duration of anticoagulation should cover at least 3 months.Whether extended anticogulation therapy shoud balance the efficacy and safety of the therapy.Nevertheless, the concerning about bleeding may affect the decision on the extended anticoagulation for pulmonary embolism patients who may benefit from continuing anticoagulation. Rivaroxaban is an oral direct factor Xa inhibitor, it does not require routine laboratory monitoring and has no food interactions and only a few drug interactions compared to standard of care with the recommendation for the treatment of pulmonary embolism by several guidelines.Our study aims to acquire the data of effectiveness and safety of rivaroxaban used in clinical practice of extended anticoagulation for pulmonary embolism patients in China through this perspective observational study.
Objectives: To understand whether the implementation of warfarin dose management using NextDose (nextdose.org) at The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University (Suzhou, China) improves the quality of anticoagulation therapy. Endpoint Primary 1. Percentage of time within the acceptable INR range estimated using linear interpolation during the 28 days after initiation of warfarin. Secondary 2.1 Percentage of Time Measures 2.2 Time to Stable Dose 2.3 Safety Outcomes 2.4 Acceptability of NextDose Recommendations Exploratory 3.1 Percentage of Time Measures 3.2 Time to Stable Dose 3.3 Safety Outcomes 3.4 Acceptability of NextDose Recommendations 3.5 Model Evaluation 3.6 INR Variability Population: 240 participants of any sex between the age of 18 and 80 years. Patients requiring treatment with warfarin following cardiac surgery.
Viral infections provoke the systemic inflammatory response and cause an imbalance between the procoagulant and anticoagulant homeostatic mechanisms. Multiple pathogenic mechanisms are involved, including endothelial dysfunction, increased von Willebrand factor, Toll receptor activation, and tissue factor pathway activation. D-dimer levels greater than 1000 ng / mL are associated with an 18-fold increased risk of mortality. In this context, many patients may require prophylaxis or antithrombotic treatment with low molecular weight heparins. Currently, there is no validated scheme on the dose and timing of the use of antithrombotic drugs. The study aims to identify the effect of two anticoagulant strategies (prophylactic and therapeutic) on the progression to ventilatory support or death in patients with COVID-19 infection who require hospital care.
Patients with Cushing disease was randomized to 2 groups. After surgery, the patients were managed with mechanical prevention or mechanical prevention plus anticoagulant drugs(LMWH followed by rivaroxaban), VTE was observed 24h, 5day, 4weeks and 12weeks after surgery.Bleeding events were also recorded.
Fibrinolysis is the body's process that prevents blood clots. The investigators hypothesize that patients presenting with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) or blood clots in the lungs differ in their fibrinolytic deficit phenotype. The investigators aim to use biomarkers directly involved in endogenous fibrinolytic cascade including PAI-1, Alpha-2-Antiplasmin (A2A), TAFI, D-dimer, and Fibrinogen to phenotypically characterize patients presenting with acute PE and to correlate these biomarkers with clinical, echocardiographic, computed tomography (CT), and functional status outcomes.
