View clinical trials related to Thromboembolism.
Filter by:Consecutive patients with acute or previous venous thromboembolism are enrolled in this registry. Using a standardized questionnaire, clinical data detailing venous thromboembolism and contributing VTE risk factors are recorded. Results of technical and laboratory investigations including screening for thrombophilic disorders were additionally entered into the database.
The general aim of this study is to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg bid administered orally and warfarin Pro re nata (As needed/PRN) to maintain an International Normalised Ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0 for 6 month treatment of acute symptomatic VTE. The primary objective is to investigate the efficacy of dabigatran compared to warfarin during the 6 month treatment period. The investigation of other selected efficacy aspects and safety are regarded as secondary objective of this trial.
The primary objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of once daily (q.d.) subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with q.d. s.c. injections of Enoxaparin for the prevention of Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE) in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) and to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposure in this population.
The objective of this study is to characterize and compare the risks of long-term use of oral contraceptives containing drospirenone and of other established oral contraceptives.
Cancer is a well known risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE) such as deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Today we know that patients with adenocarcinomas of the gastro intestinal tract (GI-tract) often is in a hypercoagulable state. In our observational study we collect patients admitted to department with a tentative diagnosis of upper GI cancer including pancreas cancer and offer them flow doppler ultrasounds of both legs for diagnosis of DVT in the entire treatment time. The routine CT-scan of the chest is modified to diagnose PE. This will be compared with blood samples analysed for coagulation markers including D-dimer - a fibrinogen degradation product.
The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate non-inferiority of 220 mg oral dabigatran etexilate compared to 40 mg subcutaneous enoxaparin administered once daily. Safety and efficacy will be compared between the treatment groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine if TAK-442, once daily (QD) or twice daily (BID), is as safe and effective as enoxaparin in preventing the development of blood clots after knee replacement surgery.
Several human genes affect how medications are metabolized by the body. It is believed that knowledge of variations of these genes can help health care providers better manage an anticoagulation medicine called warfarin (Coumadin®)and as a result decrease patient problems with bleeding or the development of blood clots. This study is designed to evaluate if genetic testing can improve warfarin initiation better than usual care.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate patients with inferior vena cava (IVC)thrombosis in terms of etiology, clinical course and prognosis during long-term follow-up. Patients with isolated lower extremity DVT, matched for age and gender, serve as controls.
To determine the safety of prophylaxis with Tinzaparin low molecular weight heparin in primary brain tumor patients. 2. To determine the incidence of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism in brain tumor patients who will be receiving Tinzaparin as primary prophylaxis. 3. To determine the overall survival of patients with malignant glioma who receive Tinzaparin. 4. To determine the bone density before and after prophylactic Tinzaparin.
