Filter by:Patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) have a higher risk of both venous thromboembolism (VTE) and major bleeding (MB). Patients with CRC are underrepresented in the major trials examining treatment of cancer-associated VTE with anticoagulant.
Insertion of intravenous catheter is a very common operation in patients in the general intensive care unit. These catheters are used for a variety of purposes - administration of inotropics/pressors, intravenous nutrition, concentrated electrolytes and performing dialysis.There are several known complications of central venous catheter insertion, such as thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. In a literature review, there are no clear data regarding the rate of intravenous thrombosis in patients after removal of a central venous catheter. These findings are often discovered randomly, when the patient undergoes imaging for a different indication. There is no recommendation for an active search for intravenous thrombi at the catheter insertion sites in these patients, and it is not entirely clear whether it is mandatory to administer anticoagulant treatment in these patients if thrombi are randomly discovered at the catheter insertion sites. In this study, we aim to check the proportion of patients who developed thrombosis at the central catheter insertion sites after its removal, to check whether there are catheter insertion sites that are at a higher risk of developing thrombosis than other sites, and to check whether there are predictive characteristics for the development of this type of thrombosis.
This is a physician-initiated, observational, monocentric, retrospective and prospective Study. The study is intended to assess the feasibility of mechanical thrombectomy of caval and iliofemoral veins according to normal clinical practice in adult patients with symptomatic acute or subacute ileofemoral or caval deep vein thrombosis objectively diagnosed with CT scan imaging.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of edoxaban in the prevention of tumor catheter-related thrombosis (CVC/PICC) in high-risk patients
To study thrombin generation parameters in critically ill patients with and without central line related thrombosis (CRT).
As the occurrence of thrombosis in post surgery is rare, it seemed difficult to study only this one. This is why we decided to test the bioimpedance, temperature and green, red and infrared light absorption measurements of the prototype during the weaning of the flap during surgery. Indeed, during weaning the investigators voluntarily interrupt the arterial and venous flow to transfer the flap to the breast. This weaning corresponds to a thrombosis model. The patients will benefit from an "improved" postoperative monitoring. Indeed, in addition to the classical clinical monitoring, they will benefit from an additional monitoring during 5 days thanks to the realization of an ultrasound of the flap which will be carried out every 6 hours the first 24 hours then every 12 hours. This protocol is therefore a feasibility study for the collection of data of interest.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the second leading cause of death in patients with cancer, after disease progression. VTE is increasingly recognized as a complication in patients with hematologic malignancies and various studies have reported high rates of VTE. Critically ill patients are at high risk of VTE and should all receive thromboprophylaxis. Given the increasing number of patients with HM (hematologic malignancies) / HCT (Hematopoietic cell transplantation) who develop critical illness, and their often prolonged course, it is imperative to understand the incidence and risk factors for VTE, and to evaluate the efficacy and risks associated with both chemical and mechanical thromboprophylaxis Therefore, the investigators plan to evaluate retrospectively the VTE / PE (pulmonary embolism) incidence in HM /HCT patients at the University of Toronto, and the complications associated with it (including death). In addition, the investigators want to evaluate the use, type (mechanical or pharmacological) and timing of thromboprophylaxis. And lastly, the investigators will determine the incidence of bleeding and of complications associated with chemical and mechanical thromboprophylaxis. The investigators will describe the change in VTE incidence over the last 10 years. The investigators know that patients with COVID-19 infection are at higher risk of thrombosis than non-COVID patients. As such, HM/HCT COVID-19 pts will comprise a subgroup, which will be compared with patients who are not not positive for COVID-19. If these numbers are low, COVID-19 status will be included as a predictive variable in our modelling. The results of this research program will help define indications and safety of VTE prophylaxis; and will inform the development of clinical practice guidelines.
This study aims to describe the incidence of catheter-related and non-catheter-related thrombosis in a population of adults in ICU and to assess its correlation with alteration of coagulation parameters.
Fondaparinux is an anticoagulant used in the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disease. It has recently been approved in the European Union (EU) for the treatment of patients with isolated superficial vein thrombosis (SVT), i.e. without concomitant deep vein thrombosis (DVT), of the lower limbs. As part of EU approval, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) committed to evaluate physicians' adherence to fondaparinux prescribing information regarding proper diagnosis and dosing for the treatment of SVT. The primary objective is to evaluate physicians' adherence to fondaparinux prescribing information for the treatment of patients with SVT without concomitant DVT. The study is designed as a non-interventional, retrospective chart review of patients prescribed fondaparinux to treat their SVT. The study will be conducted in several EU countries.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a common post-operative complication. The effectiveness of fondaparinux compared with other injectable anticoagulants in VTE following major orthopedic and abdominal surgery has been evaluated in database studies; however, the effectiveness of injectable anticoagulant medications following cancer-related surgeries in the practice setting has not been as well documented. The objective of this study is to analyze patient records from a national hospital database and compare the outcomes and costs between four types of injectable anticoagulant medications that were prescribed for the prevention of VTE following cancer-related surgery. This analysis will assess and quantify the outcomes, resource utilization, and cost of care for patients receiving fondaparinux, enoxaparin, dalteparin or unfractionated heparin. The outcomes of interest include the occurence of VTE, rates of major bleeds, medical resource utilization, and total costs (medical plus pharmacy). The source of data for this study is the Premier Perspective Database™. This hospital claims database links de-identified inpatient medical, pharmacy, and billing data from more than 500 hospitals. This study is a retrospective cohort study that uses propensity score matching to adjust for the differences between the numbers of patients treated with each medication.
