Filter by:Given the risks associated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and the lack of defined pathways for patients prescribed this class of medications, the study intervention has the potential for an enormous impact in preventing medication errors and improving the quality of care transition, patient knowledge, and adherence with DOAC therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new oral anticoagulants and vitamin K antagonists for the anticoagulation for the implantation of vena cava filters in patients with deep venous thrombosis.
Non-surgical traumas to the lower limbs that require orthopedic immobilisation (plaster or splint) are a frequent reason for going to accident and emergency. Due to venous stasis caused by immobilisation, hypercoagulable states and vascular injuries brought on by the trauma, these patients are at risk of developing VTE. For this reason, it is current practice in France and Belgium for the majority of patients to receive a preventative anticoagulant treatment. However, the benefit of this treatment, which has a considerable cost, is controversial. Contrary to French recommendations, American recommendations from 2012 actually advise against systematic preventative medicine, with prevention appearing to be effective primarily in studies with restrictive inclusion criteria. The most significant randomised controlled study on the subject did not show the benefit of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) on the rate of symptomatic VTE among 1,435 non-selected patients. Therefore, in 2017, the Cochrane meta-analysis concluded that stratification of the risk of thromboembolism is required. For this purpose, in collaboration with the Dutch team of Nemeth et al. we have recently developed a risk stratification model that takes into consideration the patient's characteristics, the type of immobilisation and the severity of the trauma: the TRiP(cast) score. This score is applied retrospectively to a large cohort and demonstrates excellent prognostic performances (AUC (area under the curve) of 0.74). In addition, when using a <7 limits, it makes it possible to identify a large group of patients at very low risk of developing VTE (negative predictive value: 99.2%). The aim of the CASTING study is to prospectively demonstrate the reliability and utility of the TRiP(cast) score by showing that patients with orthopaedic immobilisation of a lower limb who are not receiving preventative treatment on the basis of a TRiP(cast) score of <7 have a very low rate of symptomatic VTE, which allows for a significant reduction in prescriptions of anticoagulants in comparison with prior practices.
MACACOD is a clinical record in the usual clinical practice of direct oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban). Design: single-center, observational, prospective, uncontrolled study of anticoagulated patients with any direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism to determine the incidence of serious complications (thromboembolic or hemorrhagic) in real life
Patients who have developed a venous thrombosis will receive apixaban to treat and prevent a secondary thromboembolism.
The main objective for this study is validation for the proposed risk stratification tool, by evaluating the clinical outcomes for its use post TKR Surgeries. For this objective, the design that is used is Randomized Trial.
This study aims to investigate a novel positron emission tomography(PET)-probe for imaging of fresh intravascular blood clots in pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep venous thrombosis (DVT).
The HOKUSAI post VTE study contains of two different research questions; one on the long term outcomes of deep vein thrombosis and one on the long term effects of pulmonary embolism, post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) respectively. Our aim of the study is to compare the long term outcomes along with the quality of life assessment of VTE in a group treated with heparin+VKA versus a group treated with heparin+edoxaban in the acute setting.
Post-surgical bleeding is a major source of morbidity in cancer patients, and ramifications can include need for transfusion, increased length of hospital stay, unexpected return to the operating room, or even death. Current guidelines support that all cancer patients who require surgical procedures receive post-operative blood thinners to minimize risk for blood clots in the legs or lungs, known as venous thromboembolism (VTE), but these medications have an unfavorable risk/benefit relationship among patients at low risk for VTE. The proposed work will pilot a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial to critically examine the role of de-implementation of current guidelines that mandate blood thinning medications among cancer patients at low risk for VTE who require surgical procedures; the pilot trial will allow optimization of the design of a future pragmatic multicenter trial, which ultimately would maximize patient safety after surgical procedures for cancer.
Participants between the ages of 19 and 70 who were initially diagnosed with venous thromboembolism and were accompanied by dyslipidemia (LDL> = 100 mg / dl) were enrolled. Participants diagnosed with pulmonary embolism, pulmonary embolism CT, and peripheral B-mode ultrasound (B-mode ultrasound) Only participants who do not meet the exclusion criteria should be enrolled in the study. Once the participant is selected, the patient is informed of the study and receives the consent form. Participants who are eligible for all of the criteria and who do not qualify as exclusion criteria should be enrolled in the study and randomly enrolled in a 1: 1 dose of rosuvastatin 20 mg once daily or equivalent. Participants who previously used statins have a wash-out period of two weeks or more Participants undergo a visit at 12 weeks after initiation of treatment. For fasting blood tests, patients visit on an empty stomach. Outpatient follow-up observes side effects after last visit and observes changes in vital signs and weight. After 24 weeks of treatment, the participant visits for efficacy evaluation. We performed body weight, vital signs and blood tests (WBC, hemoglobin, BUN, creatinine, CRP, D-dimer, fibrinogen, PAI-1, AST, ALT, CK, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL). 1. Primary evaluation item: Improvement of venous insufficiency at 6 months 2. Secondary evaluation items: Improvement of blood lipid concentration, inflammation and blood clotting at 6 months Comparison of numerical rate of change 3. Tertiary evaluation items: recurrence of venous thrombosis
