Filter by:The SENTRY Bioconvertible Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) Filter has been developed to provide temporary protection against pulmonary embolism (PE).
This prospective cohort study will provide information about: characteristics of Rivaroxaban use in patients who are prescribed Rivaroxaban for the first time compared to patients who are prescribed Warfarin for the first time, the occurrence of intracranial haemorrhage, gastrointestinal and urogenital bleeding, and the occurrence of non-infective liver disease.
This prospective cohort study will provide information about: characteristics of Rivaroxaban use in patients who are prescribed Rivaroxaban for the first time compared to patients who are prescribed Acenocoumarol for the first time, the occurrence of intracranial haemorrhage, gastrointestinal and urogenital bleeding, and the occurrence of non-infective liver disease.
This prospective cohort study will provide information about: characteristics of Rivaroxaban use in patients who are prescribed Rivaroxaban for the first time compared to patients who are prescribed Phenprocoumon for the first time, the occurrence of intracranial haemorrhage, gastrointestinal and urogenital bleeding, and the occurrence of non-infective liver disease.
This is a randomized study to treat subjects diagnosed with pulmonary embolism with inhaled nitric oxide or placebo (oxygen).
To prospectively investigate the association between plasma lactate concentration and short-term adverse outcomes in patients with acute PE.
Patients with Submassive Pulmonary Embolism treated with ultra-sound therapy will have an improved right ventricular function 72 hours post treatment.
This study aims to evaluate the use of rivaroxaban and its short term safety when used by patients for the new indications of prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) and prevention of recurrent DVT and PE. Any adult patient started by their care team on rivaroxaban or an alternative anticoagulant for the specified indications during the study period will be eligible to take part. A questionnaire will be completed by the care team of each patient at the start of treatment and again 12 weeks later. The care team will complete the questionnaires using information from the patient's medical notes, not by asking the patient directly. If a participant has an adverse event during the 12 week period, we may ask the patient's care team to fill out a further follow up questionnaire. No other examinations or tests will be performed. Patients will only be recruited to the study after the clinical decision to prescribe rivaroxaban or an alternative anticoagulant has been made, so that prescribing behaviour is not altered by the study. It is an observational, non-interventional study covering the whole of England and Wales.
Many drug interactions with Warfarin are well documented in the literature, including interactions with a variety of antibiotics. However,in mamy cases it is difficult to predict when the interaction remains theoretical and when it becomes clinically significant and will be reflected in the individual patient. This study's aim is to identify and characterize related conditions (including comorbidities, laboratory test results and other parameters related to the patient)that might be predictors for drug interactions turning from theoretical to clinically significant.
Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is an important cause of in-hospital mortality and may be rapidly fatal if not diagnosed and treated. Despite recent advances in diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, it is still one of the important causes of hospital mortality. Previous several reports have described the variable outcome of patients with PE with reported mortality rate ranging from 8.1% (stable patients) to 25% (with cardiogenic shock) and 65% (post cardiopulmonary resuscitation). Nevertheless, there are no published studies from Korean hospitals that assessed the outcome of acute PE treated in the hospital with IV unfractionated heparin. We conducted this study to determine the outcome, risk factors, clinical characteristics and demographics of patients with acute PE and to identify possible demographic and clinical factors associated with prognosis.
