Filter by:We performed a national cross-sectional and prospective large epidemiological cohort study in patients with ST. Office- and hospital-based vascular medicine French practitioners enrolled all consecutive patients with a symptomatic ST of the lower limbs at least 5 cm long documented by compression ultrasonography. Follow-up was three months. All events were adjudicated by a central committee.
To evaluate fondaparinux 2.5mg subcutaneously once daily for 45 days in the treatment of acute (recent) superficial thrombophlebitis.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of topically administered diclofenac gel versus placebo with respect to the symptom score (pain, temperature and size of erythema along the superficial vein)
The optimal treatment of superficial venous thrombosis (SVT) is still uncertain. Though low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is considered the treatment of choice, studies conducted so far do not give clear indications of the optimal dose and duration of treatment. This study aims to evaluate whether an intermediate therapeutic dose of LMWH (parnaparin) is more effective than a prophylactic dose and also to assess whether 10 rather than 30 days are sufficient for treatment.
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that Fragmin (dalteparin sodium) subcutaneously once daily for 7 days is more effective than Ibuprofen given orally three times daily for 7 days for the treatment of superficial thrombophlebitis (STP).
Acute deep venous thrombosis (ADVT) of the lower extremity is a common disorder. Traditional treatment with anticoagulation therapy is effective in reducing the associated risk of pulmonary embolism, but is ineffective in restoring patency of the venous system of the lower extremity. While systemic thrombolytic therapy has been shown to be more effective than anticoagulation, catheter directed local thrombolytic therapy is the most effective treatment in restoring venous patency. Current treatment regimens are based on use of urokinase, infused continuously through catheters imbedded into the thrombus. These treatment regimens require doses on the order of 10,000,000 units of urokinase, resulting in significant bleeding complications and prohibitive costs. Experience at NIH with pulse-spray treatment of axillary subclavian venous thrombosis with rtPA indicates that this is a highly effective and safe alternative thrombolytic regimen. The proposed protocol is designed to evaluate the efficiency, safety, and doses of rtPA associated with pulse spray directed rtPA treatment of the more extensive venous thrombosis encountered in the lower extremity.
To determine the benefits and risks of oral anticoagulant therapy in reducing embolic stroke and systemic emboli in patients with atrial fibrillation without rheumatic heart disease.
