Filter by:Treatment with Estradiol is non-inferior to treatment with Tranexamic acid in reducing the amount and duration of menstrual blood loss in women with cyclic heavy menstrual bleeding
The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical algorithm which the investigators plan to use to more accurately estimate intraoperative blood loss.
Study hypothesis: Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG)-directed primary prophylaxis with nonselective beta-blocker therapy (NSBB) leads to a reduction in first variceal bleeding episodes and is cost-effective in the long term. Study design: A multi-center randomized controlled study comparing nonselective beta-blocker therapy guided by the hemodynamic response as determined by the difference in HVPG before and after starting oral NSBB therapy, to standard heart rate-guided NSBB therapy in patients with esophageal varices due to liver cirrhosis without a history of esophageal variceal hemorrhage. Primary study parameters/outcome of the study: First variceal bleeding episodes occurring within the first two years. Secondary study parameters/outcome of the study: - Mortality - Occurrence of other cirrhosis-related complications - Occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma - Costs of treatments - Adverse effects
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal death worldwide, with an estimated mortality of 140 000 per year. Uterine atony is one of the most important causes of PPH. The traditional treatment of which is the use of uterotonic agents. Oxytocin is the most conventional drug which was proved effective. However, it has the shortcomings of short half life and the necessity of intravenous administration. Misopristol, and more recently Carbetocin were introduced for treatment of atonic PPP not responding to Oxytocin. Aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Carbetocin, Misopristol, and Oxytocin for treatment of atonic PPH.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the effective dose of carbetocin which would prevent the occurrence of postpartum uterine atony in 90% of women undergoing an elective cesarean delivery.
The purpose of this study is to examine wether delayed cerebral ischemia can be predicted by ultrasound brain perfusion imaging in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of aspirin prior to colonoscopy increases the risk of post polypectomy bleeding. The primary end point is comparison of bleeding rates after polypectomy of a continuous aspirin group and temporally aspirin-quit group. The secondary end point is analysis of risk factors which affect early or delayed post polypectomy bleeding.
Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and esophageal varices bleeding were randomized to undergo endoscopic ligation alone (group A) and additive propranolol treatment (group B) after stabilization of their first acute bleeding.
Cerebral vasospasm(CVS) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) results in a considerable amount of transient or even permanent neurological deficits and poor outcome of the patients. Transluminal Balloon angioplasty (TBA) or intraarterial application of vasodilators represents a rescue therapy for severe CVS. Indication, duration and efficacy of this treatment, however, is still under debate. Aim of the study is to investigate if such a rescue treatment can significantly reduce new delayed ischemic cerebral deficits after SAH. Hypothesis is that the occurance of delayed infarcts can be reduced by repetetive intraarterial therapy to more than 50 %.
Problematic uterine bleeding after the insertion of the LNG IUS is a well documented side effect. The levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG IUS) was approved for treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) by the FDA in October 2009. To reduce the incidence and severity of post-insertional uterine bleeding, pretreatment with norethindrone acetate may effectively slough the endometrium prior to insertion of the LNG IUS.
