Filter by:The goal of this study is to investigate the hemostatic balance in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) treated according to the ALLTogether1 protocol with focus on the early treatment period including concomitant use of steroids and asparaginase. The investigators aim to determine if complement proteins or microparticles can be used as clinically relevant predictive or diagnostic biomarkers for thrombosis and if global hemostatic assays can predict bleeding or thrombosis. Characterization of proteins connected to hemostasis before and during ALL treatment may provide pathophysiological insights regarding ALL- and treatment related coagulopathy. The ultimate goal of the study is to minimize the morbidity and mortality related to thrombosis and bleeding complications in children with ALL. Several pediatric oncology centers in Sweden will be participating in this study, which will enroll approximately 100 pediatric patients.
This is a prospective study to evaluate the predictive value of the TEG 6s platelet mapping® (TEG 6s® PM) performed during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in the prediction of biological coagulopathy (determined by TEG 6S global hemostasis®), in cardiac surgery with high risk of bleeding.
The proposed study is a prospective, observational, investigator and patient blinded study comparing the results of blood volume measurement using the FDA-cleared Daxor BVA-100 device to the Daxor BVA-200 device. Data from this study may be pooled with data from studies with similar design conducted at other sites, for the purposes of an FDA medical device submission.
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.
Protamine is routinely used as a heparin reversal agent in cardiac surgery. However, its use may be associated with adverse events, while protamine excess may have additional anti-coagulant affect. Although guidelines advise towards a diminished reversal ratio, clinical practice remain heterogenic. The purpose of this study is to compare two different reversal ratios (0.6:1 και 0.8:1) of total heparin regarding the Activated Clotting Time (ACT), viscoelastic assays (Clot-Pro) and clinical hemorrhage. A baseline ACT value and Clot Pro tests will be obtained prior to the operation start. After the initial reversal, ACT, Clot Pro tests will be conducted again. Coagulation factors are administrated according to Clot Pro results, and in case of ongoing clinical hemorrhage and any indication of heparin excess in the measured values, another 25mg of protamine is administrated, while tests are repeated.
Adult patients on extracoporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) frequently experience bleeding, which is in part caused by acquired von Willebrand syndrome (vWS). Prior in vitro studies have shown that the addition of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (vWF) to ECMO patient blood samples, normalizes platelet adhesion and thrombus formation. This study is a phase I study, where adult ECMO patients with refractory bleeding will be treated with recombinant vWF a single time. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of recombinant vWF in adult ECMO patients.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effect of nafamostat mesilate on patients with severe infection-related coagulation。
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to examine circulating biomarkers before and after weight loss in patients with obesity, with or without concomitant diabetes, undergoing bariatric surgery. The main questions that are being addressed are: - Do biomarkers of hemostasis, including coagulation, fibrinolysis, and platelet function improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes? - Do biomarkers of endothelial function and other aspects of vascular function improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes? - Do biomarkers of inflammation, including markers of adipocyte function, improve following surgery and if so, is that improvement more pronounced in patients with diabetes? - The possible role of circulating extracellular vesicles reflecting biological functions above will also be investigated (optional) Participants will be asked to attend in total five study visits before and after surgery including a final visit at two years post-surgery. Comparisons will be performed within- as well as between groups.
INTRODUCTION Knee supports, usually made with sponge cushion, are used to protect knee joint and prevent its injury. Sponge has less elasticity and durability compared with natural rubber. To our knowledge, there has been no study regarding effectiveness of natural rubber and sponge for knee joint protection and injury prevention in children with bleeding disorders. AIMS The study aimed to compare the effectiveness and satisfaction between natural rubber and sponge knee supports for knee joint protection among children with bleeding disorders METHODS The study had three phases: 1) measurement of compression force, 2) fabrication of knee supports, and 3) a randomized crossover trial. The supports were fabricated in 4 sizes, S, M, L, and XL. They comprised two parts: body, made from stretchable cotton; and cushion (protection part), made from either natural rubber or sponge. The trial included 8 weeks of alternatively wearing natural rubber knee support and sponge knee support with a 4-week wash-out period. Numbers of knee bleeds and satisfied users were recorded.
This is a single center prospective observational study to compare QStat parameter measurements in arterial and venous blood samples collected in parallel from patients undergoing liver transplantation.
