Filter by:This prospective observational follow-up study is designed to assess the long-term outcomes after Venous thromboembolism (VTE) and to assess the effect of the new oral anticoagulant (NOAC) rivaroxaban on the prevalence of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). The study will not be testing any formal hypothesis.
To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound accelerated thrombolysis using the EkoSonic® Endovascular System with standard infusion of thrombolytic drug for post-thrombotic syndrome from chronic venous occlusion.
Despite standard care, 25%-50% of patients with clots in the deep veins of the arms and legs progress to chronic post-clot problems resulting in significant disability, loss of productivity, and healthcare costs. Reverse flow in the veins from an organizing clot is the primary cause of post-clot problems. Veins with early clot breakdown have a lower incidence of reverse flow. The investigators have observed that clot breakdown is enhanced by increased blood flow and that moderate arm and leg exercise result in increased venous blood flow. Hence, the investigators predict that a supervised exercise program in patients with deep vein clots could increase leg vein blood flow, accelerate clot breakdown, and decrease the risk of post clot problems. The primary hypothesis is that increased blood flow across the clot (induced by supervised exercise) will increase clot breakdown and decrease severity of post clot problems. The investigators are conducting a randomized clinical trial of standard therapy compared to progressive exercise training in patients with leg deep vein clots.
Deep Venous Thrombosis affects more than 350,000 individuals each year in the U.S.The Registry will track patient outcome and quality of life over 60 months for treatment with anticoagulation and elastic compression stockings and catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in accordance with current treatment guidelines .
This study would like to determine if using negative pressure wound therapy with an instillation of .125% Dakins is more effective than using negative pressure wound therapy alone on biofilm removal, disruption and elimination in chronically infected lower extremity wounds.
The goal of the pilot study is to determine if a multicenter prospective cohort study of cancer patients with blood clots associated with catheters is feasible. Cancer patients with catheter-related thrombosis treated with one month of anticoagulation will be evaluated for for post-thrombotic syndrome. Laboratory biomarkers will be evaluated as predictors of recurrent thrombosis.
This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This research is being done to compare the efficacy of HP802-247 plus compression therapy against Vehicle plus compression therapy in achieving complete wound closure over the 12-week treatment period. Vehicle looks the same as HP802-247 but contains no cells. At least 440 subjects will participate. The study is going to be conducted in approximately 5 countries at approximately 50 sites across the European Union.
Patients with unilateral post-thrombotic obstruction of the iliac tract and or common femoral vein, eligible for stenting are included. Intravenous pressure is measured in both dorsal foot veins and both common femoral veins. Patients are asked to undergo a standardised treadmill test (3.2km/h, 0% slope that increases by 2%/2min, maximum walking time 26 min). Painfree and maximum action radius are noted.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of an oral, nutrient intervention containing the bioactive components of fish oil to promote healing of chronic venous leg ulcers (CVLU). If this systemic, nutrient intervention is found to alter the microenvironment of CVLU, the science of wound healing and care of patients with CVLU will be vastly improved.
The use of ActiveCare+S.F.T 3rd generation (an Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Device) will improve quality of life in patients suffering from Post Thrombotic Syndrome compared to compression stockings which is the current gold standard of care.
