Filter by:- Previous in vitro and in vivo studies detected the Hemopatch Sealing Hemostat® to be a new versatile, self-adhering hemostatic sealing pad consisting of a polyethylene glycol-coated collagen. - Initial study assessed that Hemopatch Sealing Hemostat® can be applied to seal almost any bleeding surface encountered during a range of procedures. The Authors shown that the device is eminently capable in both via laparotomy and laparoscopic approaches, and in patients with impaired coagulation or highly variable anatomies. They support the ease-of-use, application, and immediate hemostatic effect of the patch across a broad range of surgical settings and clinical applications, including solid organ, gastrointestinal, biliopancreatic, endocrine, cardiovascular, and urologic surgeries. - In a recent published case report the authors reported the feasibility in using Hemopatch Sealing Hemostat® for the management of a myocardial wound, performing the procedure on cardiopulmonary bypass, which meant the patient had to be heparinized. Despite these major risk factors for bleeding Hemopatch Sealing Hemostat® managed to contain bleeding and seal the wound without needing any suture. These initial results lead up to future randomized clinical trials with more extensive follow-up to assess which is the real contribution of Hemopatch Sealing Hemostat to reduce postoperative bleeding complications in cases where mechanical or energy-driven hemostasis is not possible or insufficient.
The purpose of this prospective, randomized, controlled study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new hemostatic device (HEMOBLAST™ Bellows) compared to a control device, absorbable gelatin sponge USP with thrombin.
The purpose of this study is to collect and store samples and health information for current and future research to learn more about the causes and treatment of blood diseases. This is not a therapeutic or diagnostic protocol for clinical purposes. Blood, bone marrow, hair follicles, nail clippings, urine, saliva and buccal swabs, left over tissue, as well as health information will be used to study and learn about blood diseases by using genetic and/or genomic research. In general, genetic research studies specific genes of an individual; genomic research studies the complete genetic makeup of an individual. It is not known why many people have blood diseases, because not all genes causing these diseases have been found. It is also not known why some people with the same disease are sicker than others, but this may be related to their genes. By studying the genomes in individuals with blood diseases and their family members, the investigators hope to learn more about how diseases develop and respond to treatment which may provide new and better ways to diagnose and treat blood diseases. Primary Objective: - Establish a repository of DNA and cryopreserved blood cells with linked clinical information from individuals with non-malignant blood diseases and biologically-related family members, in conjunction with the existing St. Jude biorepository, to conduct genomic and functional studies to facilitate secondary objectives. Secondary Objectives: - Utilize next generation genomic sequencing technologies to Identify novel genetic alternations that associate with disease status in individuals with unexplained non-malignant blood diseases. - Use genomic approaches to identify modifier genes in individuals with defined monogenic non-malignant blood diseases. - Use genomic approaches to identify genetic variants associated with treatment outcomes and toxicities for individuals with non-malignant blood disease. - Use single cell genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics to investigate biomarkers for disease progression, sickle cell disease (SCD) pain events and the long-term cellular and molecular effects of hydroxyurea therapy. - Using longitudinal assessment of clinical and genetic, study the long-term outcomes and evolving genetic changes in non-malignant blood diseases. Exploratory Objectives - Determine whether analysis of select patient-derived bone marrow hematopoietic progenitor/stem (HSPC) cells or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can recapitulate genotype-phenotype relationships and provide insight into disease mechanisms. - Determine whether analysis of circulating mature blood cells and their progenitors from selected patients with suspected or proven genetic hematological disorders can recapitulate genotype-phenotype relationships and provide insight into disease mechanisms.
The transradial route is used in 90% of the coronary angiograms performed at Oslo University Hospital (OUS), Ullevål. A compression device needs to be applied after the procedure to achieve hemostasis. Patients and staff will benefit from using a device that yields safe and painless hemostasis. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard compression device (control group, A) or a recently developed compression device (experimental group, B). The study will be designed as a non-inferiority, prospective randomized controlled trial, with outcome measures being patient comfort during compression time and complication rates. Complications that will be measured are radial artery occlusion (RAO) measured using ultrasound at a follow up visit. Hematomas or bleeds from the puncture site after application of the compression device will also be classified as complications. The aim of the study is to investigate whether the new device, RY-STOP is non-inferior compared to the standard device, when considering the outcome measures.
The primary objective of this pilot clinical investigation is to assess the reliability of the Surface Bleeding Severity Scale (SBSS) in a clinical setting. Secondary objectives of this clinical investigation are to collect initial data on the safety and efficacy of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows in abdominal and orthopedic lower extremity surgeries.
This is a sub-study to the Time-differentiated Therapeutic Hypothermia (TTH48, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01689077). TTH48 compares 24 with 48 hours of therapeutic hypothermia at a target temperature of 32-34°C in survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The overall aim of this sub-study is to examine the hemostasis in patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest and treated with 24 and 48 hours of therapeutic hypothermia Our specific aims are: - To investigate the whole blood coagulation using the rotational thromboelastometry. - To investigate the function of platelets
The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized control trial, double-blind study to compare Hexacapron with standard of care treatment to standard of care alone to evaluate the efficacy of adding effect of Hexacapron to standard therapy by decreasing the episodes of rebleeding and mortality in patient with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
The objective of this study is to observe the clinical utility and performance of Bioseal when used as an adjunct to hemostasis versus Standard of Care (SoC) in elective meningioma surgery.
This purpose of this clinical trial is to study the safety and efficacy of Topical Thrombin (Human) Grifols as an add-on treatment to help stop bleeding during vascular, liver, soft tissue, and spinal open surgical procedures. Approximately 180 subjects will be treated with either Topical Thrombin (Human) Grifols (120 subjects) or Bovine Thrombin JMI® (60 subjects). Subjects will be evaluated for identification of a target bleeding site (TBS) in which control of bleeding by standard surgical techniques is ineffective or impractical and requires an additional treatment to stop the bleeding. The Investigator (surgeon) will rate the intensity of bleeding at the TBS. Topical Thrombin (Human) Grifols or Bovine Thrombin JMI will then be applied to the TBS and the amount of bleeding at the TBS will be examined.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the impact of DR-102, a 28-day oral contraceptive compared to a standard 28-day oral contraceptive regimen on hemostatic parameters in healthy women.
