Filter by:Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common respiratory system disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and irreversible airflow restriction, which seriously endangers people's health. Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) refers to individuals who experience continuous deterioration beyond their daily condition and need to change their routine medication. AECOPD is usually caused by viruses and bacteria, and patients require hospitalization, which brings a huge economic burden to society. AECOPD patients often have limited activities. Because long-term chronic hypoxia causes venous blood stasis, siltation causes secondary red blood cell increase, and blood hypercoagulability, AECOPD patients have a high risk of pulmonary embolism (PE). Pulmonary Thrombo Embolism (PTE) refers to a disease caused by blockage of the pulmonary artery or its branches caused by a thrombus from the venous system or right heart. AECOPD patients experience elevated hemoglobin levels and increased blood viscosity due to long-term hypoxia. At the same time, such patients have decreased activity, venous congestion, and are prone to thrombosis. After the thrombus falls off, it can travel up the vein, causing PTE to occur in the right heart PTE is often secondary to low deep vein thrombosis (DVT). About 70% of patients were diagnosed as deep vein thrombosis in lower limb color ultrasound examination. SteinPD conducted a survey on COPD patients and general patients from multiple hospitals. The results showed that by comparing adult COPD patients with non COPD patients, the relative risk of DVT was 1.30, providing evidence for AECOPD being more likely to combine with PTE AECOPD patients with PTE have similarities in their clinical manifestations. It is difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, such as cough, increased sputum production, increased shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. They lack specificity and are difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, which can easily lead to missed diagnosis. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of PTE, but due to the high cost of testing and high equipment prices, its popularity in grassroots hospitals is not high. Therefore, analyzing the risk factors of AECOPD patients complicated with PTE is of great significance for early identification of PTE. At present, although there are reports on the risk factors for concurrent PTE in AECOPD patients, there is no specific predictive model for predicting PTE in AECOPD patients. In clinical practice, risk assessment tools such as the Caprini risk assessment model and the modified Geneva scale are commonly used for VTE, while the Wells score is the PTE diagnostic likelihood score. The evaluation indicators of these tools are mostly clinical symptoms, and laboratory indicators are less involved, It is difficult to comprehensively reflect the patient's condition, so the specificity of AECOPD patients with PTE is not strong. The column chart model established in this study presents a visual prediction model, which is convenient for clinical use and has positive help for the early detection of AECOPD patients with PTE. In addition, medical staff can present the calculation results of the column chart model to patients, making it easier for patients to understand. It helps improve the early identification and treatment of AECOPD combined with PTE patients, thereby improving prognosis.
A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
Validation of Clinical Prediction Model for Venous Thromboembolism Following Neurosurgery: A Multicenter, Prospective, and Cohort Study
The goal of this patient registry is to learn about the natural history in patients with chronic thromboembolic disease (CTD) and/or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Long-term outcome after various types of treatment, including medication, balloon pulmonary angioplasty, and pulmonary endarterectomy - Effect of treatment on patient's quality of life and exercise tolerance Participants will be followed longitudinally to assess their health outcomes and quality of life via chart review and health quality surveys.
Critically ill children supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) receive large volumes of prophylactic platelet transfusions to prevent bleeding. However, mounting evidence has demonstrated significant morbidity and mortality associated with these transfusions. The ECmo hemoSTAtic Transfusions In Children (ECSTATIC) pilot trial will test two different platelet transfusion strategies, based on two different platelet counts thresholds, one high (higher platelet transfusion strategy) and one low (lower platelet transfusion strategy). The pilot will gather the necessary information to perform a full trial which will provide a better understanding of how to transfuse platelets to children supported by ECMO and reduce the associated morbidity.
The PREP and GO study is an international multicentre prospective cohort evaluating anticoagulation management strategies around labor and delivery and the postpartum period.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-2004 in preventing venous thromboembolism after elective unilateral total knee arthroplasty
Aim of the study is to investigate whether the influence of drugs inducing of CYP 3A4 isoenzyme of CYP450 and P-gp transporter significantly affect plasma levels of DOACs in patients with NVAF and venous thromboembolism
Endovenous interventions are keyhole operations for varicose veins that are carried out from within the vein itself. Varicose veins are enlarged veins close to the surface of the skin. They are connected to the bigger deeper veins in the leg (known as deep veins). Because of this, operations to close the varicose veins can increase the chance of a blood clot forming in the deep veins. Blood clots in the deep veins happen in around 1 in 50 people after endovenous operations. A clot in the leg can cause swelling, pain, and other long-term problems. If a clot in the leg breaks off and travels to the lungs, it can cause problems with the lung' ability to move oxygen from the air into the blood and may, in rare cases, be life threatening. Varicose vein procedures may carry a slightly higher risk of blood clot formation, and we are currently unsure if current clot reducing medicines are beneficial in preventing blood clots in people having varicose vein procedures. This study will investigate if it is worthwhile prescribing medicines to reduce blood clots after varicose vein procedures.
The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors of cancer-associated venous thrombosis and develop a prediction model to assist clinicians in tailoring anticoagulant therapy.
