Filter by:Coagulopathy of COVID-19 afflicts approximately 20% of patients with severe COVID-19 and is associated with need for critical care and death. COVID-19 coagulopathy is characterized by elevated D-dimer, an indicator of fibrin formation and clot lysis, and a mildly prolonged prothrombin time, suggestive of coagulation consumption. To date, it seems that COVID-19 coagulopathy manifests with thromboembolism, thus anticoagulation may be of benefit. We propose to conduct a parallel pragmatic multi-centre open-label randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of therapeutic anticoagulation compared to standard care in hospitalized patients admitted for COVID-19 with an elevated D-dimer.
To determine whether the coagulopathy associated with COVID-19 infection is driven by overactivation of the renin angiotensin system (RAS)

This prospective, randomized, open-label, multi-center interventional study is designed to compare the safety and efficacy of two LMWH dosing protocols in patients admitted to the University of Iowa Hospitals with COVID-19 who meet the modified ISTH Overt DIC criteria score ≥3. Patients will be randomized to standard prophylactic dose LMWH (standard of care arm) or intermediate-dose LMWH (intervention arm).
Increased D-dimers at admission of COVID-19 infected patients entering hospital due to a severe disease is a risk factor for death. Understanding this acquired coagulopathy is a prerequisite before specific interventional studies. The study investigators aim to apply a normalized and automated thrombin generation test (TGT), developed for testing the thrombotic risk (triggered by 5 pM Tissue Factor, with a purified thrombomodulin (TM) challenge) and to study its association with survival.
Inflammation and abnormalities in laboratory coagulation tests are inseparably tied. For example, coagulation abnormalities are nearly universal in septic patients. Coagulation disorders have also been reported in many patients with severe courses of Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). But it is difficult to assess these changes. Global coagulation tests have been shown to incorrectly assess in vivo coagulation in patients admitted to intensive care units. But other tests are available. Thrombin generation assay (TGA) is a laboratory test which allows the assessment of an individual's potential to generate thrombin. But also in conventional TGA the protein C system is hardly activated because of the absence of endothelial cells (containing natural thrombomodulin) in the plasma sample. Therefore the investigators add recombinant human thrombomodulin to a conventional TGA. Thereby the investigators hope to be able to depict in vivo coagulation more closely than global coagulation tests do.
The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between coagulopathy during the perioperative period (before the operation and on the first day after the operation) and the long-term survival of traumatic brain injury patients undergoing surgery, as well as to explore the predisposing risk factors that may cause perioperative coagulopathy.
Freeline is developing adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector based gene therapies for a number of diseases and is actively advancing a programme in Haemophilia B (HB). This study aims to collect prospective data to characterise bleeding events and Factor IX (FIX) concentrate consumption in HB patients that can be used as baseline for participants who elect to participate in a subsequent Freeline gene therapy study. The study will also screen participants for antibodies to a novel AAV vector to assess their suitability for inclusion in a Freeline gene therapy treatment study.
Dexmedetomidine may alter whole blood coagulation. However, little is known about the dose-response relationships according to the blood concentration of dexmedetomidine. The investigators have therefore performed the present study to measure the effect of dexmedetomidine on the coagulation pathway according to the drug concentration level using a rotational thromboelastometry test.
Hemostasis-related disorders are common in cirrhosis and portal hypertension. However, it is not known whether the net effect of changes in hemostasis in the sense of predisposition to hemorrhagic or thrombotic state. It is suggested that increasing the concentration and activities of Von Willebrand factor (vWF) and decline ADAMTS-13 (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Trombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) may cause thrombophilic changes in cirrhosis and portal hypertension. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in ADAMTS-13 (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 13) and von willebrand factor (vWF) levels and activities in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension.
