Filter by:The aim of this randomized, blinded, placebo controlled clinical study is to compare the peri- and postoperative bleeding and cardiovascular complication rates of patients undergoing burr-hole trepanation for chronic subdural hematoma with and without discontinuation of low-dose aspirin
The Chongqing intracerebral hemorrhage study is a multi-center, prospective, observational study led by professor Qi Li from Chongqing Medical University. Professor Peng Xie will be the senior consultant for the study. The Chongqing intracerebral hemorrhage study will focus on the epidemiology, natural history, pathogenesis, laboratory, radiological aspects, clinical outcomes and the effects of treatment in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. The clinical, laboratory, imaging, genetic and outcome data of patients diagnosed with acute intracerebral hemorrhage will be prospectively collected. The prognosis of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage will be assessed by using several outcome measure scales at different time points.
The objective of the clinical investigation is to test whether intra-operative traction force feed back during vacuum extraction leads to a significant decrease in incidence of brain damage in neonates. By randomization, half of the vacuum extraction patients will be assigned to delivery using a new intelligent handle for vacuum extractions, and half will be assigned to conventional method without traction force measurement.
Hundreds of thousands patients undergo implantation or replacement of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) annually in Europe, and up to 50% of these subjects receive antiplatelet agents or oral anticoagulants. Antithrombotic therapy increases the risk of developing pocket hematoma which in turn is associated with an increased risk of potentially fatal device-related infections when clinically significant. Aim of the registry is to retrospectively (pilot local registry in Tuscany) and prospectively (multicenter national registry in Italy) investigate the different strategies for the management of antithrombotic therapy and the related complication rates (1-month and 12-months) in patients undergoing CIED surgery in a real-world setting. The registry will also provide data on the economic impact of different management strategies and complications.
DECIDE (Bedside versus Operating Room Burr-Hole DrainagE of ChronIc SubDural HEmatoma) CSDH is an abnormal collection of blood between the layers of the brain causing brain tissue compression leading to neurological complications. One of the most common risk factors contributing to CSDH is head trauma, which is usually in the form of a minor head injury. Older individuals are at increased risk of CSDH due to brain atrophy that occurs with advancing age as well as their tendency to fall and sustain minor head traumas. Chronic alcoholics are also at increased risk as alcoholism also leads to brain atrophy, increased risk of falls, and liver failure which results in increased bleeding risk. Also many drugs used today like anticoagulants, antithrombotics, and antiplatelets for certain health conditions are other common risk factors for CSDH. The overall goal of this multi-centered trial in the USA and Canada is to assess the surgical management of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) and to demonstrate the effectiveness of bedside drainage and its safety as it bypasses the perioperative risk associated with anesthetic especially among the elderly. Adult patients with a clear indication for CSDH drainage will be randomly assigned to one of two procedures. One group will receive the twist drill procedure which can be performed at the bedside. The second group will undergo the burr-hole drainage procedure in the operating room usually under general anesthetic. Typically, the twist drill procedure can occur sooner as the operating room and Anesthetist are not required. Reoccurrence of the CSDH will be assessed over a period of 6 months following drainage. Timing of procedure, risk of infection, adverse side effects and neurological functioning will also be measured. Over a 3 year study period, 486 eligible patients (243 patients per arm) will be enrolled. Patients > 18 years with confirmed diagnosis of symptomatic CSDH will be provided one of the two procedures and will be followed for study outcomes at 1, 3 and 6 months following the procedure. Primary analysis will be to compare the surgical procedures, assessing the recurrence rate of CSDH within 6 months of initial CSDH drainage. The ultimate goal of this study is to standardize bedside drainage as the treatment of choice for CSDH management. This trial is important in the ongoing search for more efficient and safe intervention strategies.
The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility and clinical benefits of the AMDS to treat patients with acute DeBakey type I dissections and/or intramural hematomas (IMH) involving the ascending aorta and aortic arch through open surgical repair.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the performance of StatSeal Advanced used in conjunction with the TR Band (SSA) as compared to the TR Band without SSA (TRB) relative to: the incidence of peri-procedural radial artery occlusion (RAO) at discharge or 24 hours, whichever occurs first, and the Time to Hemostasis (TTH).
Retrospective chart review evaluating different suture types on surgical outcomes for cesarean delivery and vaginal birth after cesarean delivery outcomes when different sutures are used.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether panax notoginseng saponins are effective in the treatment of Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage Patients.
Oral antithrombotic medications (OAM) are used for the prevention and treatment of thrombotic disorders. Among hemorrhagic complications of OAMs, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) may have particularly devastating consequences with high morbidity, disability and mortality rates. The efficacy and safety profiles of OAMs are generally assessed in randomized controlled trials (RCT), but included patients are often highly selected and may not be representative of users in everyday clinical practice in terms of follow-up routines, age, gender, drug compliance, and polypharmacy. Moreover, it is often unclear whether or not traumatic ICHs are registered and reported in RCTs. Drifts in indications and treatment criteria may also be seen in everyday practice and drug discontinuation due to precautionary concerns including compliance, fall risk and comorbidity may be forgotten. Collectively, these factors may lead to other and potentially higher traumatic ICH rates in general clinical use than reported in RCTs. The incidence rates of traumatic ICH in patients on OAMs in the general population remain unknown. In this nationwide registry based pharmacoepidemiological study we will investigate the incidence and case fatality of traumatic ICH in users of OAMs in Norway from 2008 through 2014.
