Filter by:This is a multi-centered, prospective, observational study aimed at observing the Incidence Rate of Perioperiative VTE in Colorectal Cancer Patients
The study will evaluate the effectiveness of a novel, real-time risk prediction model for identifying pediatric patients at risk for developing in-hospital blood clots (or venous thromboembolism [VTE]) based on data easily extracted from the electronic medical record. The study will assess whether using the risk percentages for developing VTE derived from the model increases the number of high-risk patients screened by the pediatric hematology team, which may may lead to an overall reduction in the number of pediatric VTEs seen at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is now a leading cause of death among U.S. adults. In addition to profound respiratory and multi-organ failure, hypercoagulable states and venous thromboembolism (VTE) have been increasingly reported in patients with severe Covid-19. The aim of this study is evaluate the risk of VTE related to Covid-19 infection in a real-world community-based population.
The purpose of the study is to assess the frequency of the occurrence of a venous thrombosis in patients with the new Coronavirus disease, who are admitted to the Intensive Care Unit for impending respiratory failure requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation. Furthermore, the investigators aim at identifying potential risk factors for thrombosis and death.
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that enoxaparin efficacy is reduced in severe nephrotic syndrome. Another purpose is to compare two dosing regimens.
Despite their usefulness in perioperative and acute care settings, factor-Xa inhibitors-specific assays are scarcely available, contrary to heparin anti-Xa assay. The investigators aimed at assessing whether the widely used heparin anti-Xa assay can quantify the apixaban, rivaroxaban, fondaparinux and danaparoid levels.
In this study researchers want to learn about the safety of drug Osocimab at lower-dose and higher-doses in adult participants with kidney disease undergoing regular dialysis (a procedure that uses a machine to get rid of toxins and extra fluids in the blood). Patients with kidney disease undergoing regular dialysis are at high risk for heart and blood vessels diseases. Osocimab is a human monoclonal antibody under development for the prevention of events caused by blood clots like heart attack, stroke and death due to heart or blood vessels diseases. It works by binding to and blocking the activated form of clotting factor XI which increases the formation and stability of clots. Researchers also want to find out how drug Osocimab works in human body and how the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the drug. Participants in this study will receive monthly injection of either Osocimab at a lower-dose or higher-dose or placebo (a placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it). Both Osocimab and placebo will be injected into the tissue under the skin of the belly. Observation for each participant will last up to 23 months. Blood samples will be collected from the participants to monitor the safety and measure the blood level of the study drug.
BAY2433334 is under clinical development for prevention of complications in diseases such as heart attack, irregular heart beat or stroke which can arise by formation of blood clots elsewhere in the body and travels through the blood stream to plug another vessel. Renal impairment which co-occurs in elderly and patients with heart attack, irregular heart beat or stroke is a common condition in which the kidneys are not filtering the blood as well as they should. The goal of the study is to learn more about the safety of BAY2433334, how it is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and gets rid of the study dug given as a single oral dose of 25 mg tablet in participants with renal impairment and healthy participants matched for age-, gender-, and weight.
Subcutaneous enoxaparin is currently the gold standard for VTE chemoprophylaxis. However, the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis with subcutaneous enoxaparin is affected by patient-level factors, thus, resulting in VTE events despite guideline-compliant prophylaxis. A population at particular risk is the growing number of patients who undergo autologous breast reconstruction. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) might be a less invasive, yet, more efficacious mode of chemoprophylaxis in this patient population. Hence, the proposed work has the potential to cause a paradigm shift in chemoprophylaxis guidelines in a large population of patients undergoing plastic surgery.
The hemostasis system is one of the many biological systems of the human body, designed to preserve the liquid state of blood and prevent its loss during vascular injuries. The ideal balance between its coagulant and anticoagulant components never occurs. In various diseases and pathological conditions, the balance of the hemostasis system may be disturbed. Shifts towards hypercoagulability lead to the development of hemorrhagic complications, opposite shifts lead to the development of thrombotic complications. Patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are not rare and unique, today doctors meet with them every day. Its more than 1.5 million CIED's implanted every year. Before surgery these patients are standard cardiology department patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), which develops due to the presence of arrhythmias, coronary heart disease, hypertension, congenital heart disease, myocardial infarction, myocarditis or other diseases and conditions. CHF is the most common, severe and unfavorable prognostic complication of these diseases. With CHF, the balance of the hemostasis system shifts towards hypercoagulation. Patients with CHF have an increased risk of arterial and venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, stroke, numerous brady- and tachyarrhythmias and other complications. After CIED implantation, bradyarrhythmia is eliminated, as one of the parts in the pathogenesis of CHF. Patients, especially those with severe symptoms, improve their condition in the early postoperative period. In the long-term period, pacing, on the contrary, may contribute to the progression of CHF. The wrong choice of pacing mode or the place of electrode implantation can lead to desynchronization of the heart chambers, myocardial remodeling and left ventricular dysfunction. Uncertainty is also observed in relation to the hemostasis system after CIED implantation. On the one hand, correction of bradyarrhythmia and CHF should provide patients with a shift towards hypocoagulability by normalizing the heart rate. On the other hand, trauma to the vessel wall during surgery, further placement of the CIED leads in the vessels, and perioperative stress can lead to even greater shifts towards hypercoagulation.
