Filter by:The aim of this project is to assess the influence of exercise on pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a single dose of subcutaneously (sc) administered unfractionated heparin (UFH). It is hypothesized that exercise will increase the systemic exposure (PK) and therefore the clinical effects (PD) of the sc administered UFH. To assess this, healthy male volunteers will be included in a controlled, randomized, crossover study, where they, on four separate days, will have UFH injected sc in the thigh, followed by different exercise interventions (one per experimental day). Blood sampling, with the aim of assessing PK and PD will be performed during the following hours.
The project focuses on perioperative bleeding that requires transfusion of blood products and supplementation of intravascular volume with crystalloids and colloids. The implemented fluid therapy affects coagulation and fibrinolysis, depending on the type of fluid used in an intravenous infusion. Massive haemorrhage significantly impacts the perioperative period and postoperative quality of life and requires individualized therapy, rending the ongoing project relevant from the perspective of the patients.
To evaluate change in coagulation tests during a 48-h period after initiation VV-ECMO and VA-ECMO. (ECMO= Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenator) Assessment of bleeding during Veno-Venous Extracoporeal Membrane Oxygenator (VV-ECMO) and Veno-Arterial Extracoporeal Membrane Oxygenator (VA-ECMO).
Up to 5% of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) patients may have or develop contraindications to use oral anticoagulation (OAC). Randomized controlled trial (RCT) data suggest that Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (LAAO) may provide a non-inferior alternative for cardioembolic stroke protection in patients tolerant to OAC. However, RCT data for LAAO is lacking in patients with contra-indications to OAC using antiplatelet (APT) or no therapy as usual care. The hypothesis underlying this trial is to demonstrate that LAAO is superior to usual care for the prevention of stroke.
This study will find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CYNK-001 which contain NK cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded. CYNK-001 cells will be given post Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT). The safety of this treatment will be evaluated, and researchers will want to learn if NK cells will help in treating Multiple Myeloma.
Treatment of hemorrhoidal disease includes a conservative approach (dietary and behavioral measures, venotropic and topical medication), office-based treatments and surgery. Rubber banding is currently considered the instrumental method of choice in the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease grades I to III (Goligher's classification). However, its use in patients with bleeding disorders is not recommended. Sclerotherapy can be performed in these patients since the hemorrhagic risk is very low. The most commonly used agent for sclerotherapy is liquid polidocanol. Polidocanol foam seems to be more effective than the liquid formulation and is safe in the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease even in patients with coagulation disorders. This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of polidocanol foam sclerotherapy in the treatment of hemorrhoidal disease grades I to III in patients with bleeding disorders.
Cesarean delivery has become the most common surgical procedure in the US. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to improve the quality of post-cesarean analgesia and markedly reduce opioid consumption. The effect of NSAIDs on healthy volunteers results in inhibition of platelet aggregation and prolonged bleeding time. However, in the obstetric population, the presence and degree of platelet inhibition after NSAID exposure is less clear. The investigators plan to use Platelet Aggregometry and Thromboelastography (TEG) to evaluate the effect of ketorolac on platelets.
This study is being conducted by BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. as an open label, single dose study to determine the safety of valoctocogene roxaparvovec (an Adenovirus-Associated Virus (AAV) based gene therapy vector) in severe Hemophilia A patients with pre-existing antibodies against AAV5.
The purpose of this study is evaluate the effect of prophylactic desmopressin on blood coagulation parameters and postoperative bleeding in patients undergoing valve cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
Massive hemorrhage is a major cause of potentially preventable death following trauma. A common consequence of hemorrhagic shock is uncontrollable bleeding from coagulopathy, leading to death from exsanguination. Even when bleeding is controlled, patients are at increased risk of complications and mortality. Reconstituted whole blood, or component therapy with packed red blood cells (PRBCs), plasma, and platelets was introduced by the military in recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan with remarkable results and has been adopted by most civilian trauma centers. Despite improving coagulopathy, it is apparent that transfusion of blood components is not equivalent to whole blood transfusion. Transfusion of high plasma volumes may be associated with increased risk of allergic reaction, transfusion associated acute lung injury (TRALI), hypervolemic cardiac failure, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Military services have recently reintroduced fresh whole blood (WB) for standard resuscitation of massive hemorrhage, have found that WB offers a survival advantage over component therapy, and that risks of transfusion reactions are similar for WB and PRBCs. On the civilian side, whole blood is an FDA-licensed product that has been in use in pediatric open heart surgery and autologous blood donation but is no longer commonly available for other indications. However, the military results are renewing interest in whole blood for trauma resuscitation. The use of low-antibody titer whole blood leukoreduced with a platelet-sparing filter was recently approved by the University of California Los Angeles Blood and Blood Derivatives Committee and two other trauma centers for male trauma patients. This study will test the feasibility of providing stored WB for resuscitation of patients in hemorrhagic shock and determine the effects of WB on clinical outcomes as well as the effects on coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammation, compared to standard blood component therapy.
