Filter by:The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability or efficacy of adjunctive treatments (including rosuvastatin 20 mg daily) in combination with standard anticoagulation therapy (Factor Xa inhibitors) in patients with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The efficacy of adjunctive treatments to prevent the development of post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) after DVT will be evaluated.
Left ventricular thrombus is a recognised complication of acute myocardial infarction, associated with stroke, recurrent myocardial infarction and adverse cardiac remodelling. The prevention, treatment and resolution of thrombus is hampered by a lack of understanding of its initiation, propagation and dissolution. Advanced non-invasive imaging holds major promise in improving our understanding of the incidence and the natural history of left ventricular thrombus as well as providing potential biomarkers to assess disease activity and treatment efficacy. In this prospective observational study, the investigators will recruit patients with recent acute anterior myocardial infarction and screen them for evidence of left ventricular thrombus and subclinical stroke using hybrid positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MR). Each patient will undergo PET/MR of the heart and head 7±2 days after acute myocardial infarction. If left ventricular thrombus is present on baseline MR, patients will be started on anticoagulation at the discretion of the attending physician, who will determine the agent used (warfarin or direct oral anticoagulant) and the duration of therapy (3-6 months). Patients will then undergo repeat PET/MR at completion of anti-coagulant therapy and then again after another 3 months. Patients with increased 18F- GP1 activity but no overt thrombus on MR will undergo repeat PET/MR of the head and heart at 3 and 6 months to establish the natural history of this observation and its association with thromboembolism in the brain. They will not routinely receive anticoagulation given the exploratory nature of this study.
Cancer patients have an increased risk of perioperative complications undergoing surgery procedures. Postoperative complications caused by thrombembolic events after robot- assisted surgery in major urological procedures have been reported and associated with an increased lenght of stay in the hospital. We therefore aimed to investigate in a retrospective analysis 250 patients undergoing robotic-assisted radical cystectomy and prostatectomy procedures for risk factors for thrombembolic events in this specific patient population.
This randomized controlled trial aim to determine the impact on renal function after treatment for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with stentgrafts either with active supra- or infrarenal fixation.
Anticoagulants influence either coagulation, inflammation and inflammatory processes in deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Acute DVT cause an inflammatory response that may persist for a long period of time. There is a need to describe patterns of change in serum biomarker levels after acute DVT, and explore the association between trajectory biological patterns and clinical evolution in the era of various anticoagulants in the acute phase of treatment in order to be able to further avoid recurrence and late sequelae. It appears that direct oral anticoagulants and heparin alter inflammatory markers in different ways. It is therefore important to study the evolution of markers according to the different treatments used and secondarily to compare them with each other. Tinzaparin is used in the long term in patients with DVT, it is necessary to measure the evolution of inflammatory markers and then in another study to compare with the other molecules.
Thromboprophylaxis for liver surgery can be commenced either preoperatively or postoperatively. Despite a clear trade-off between thrombosis and bleeding in liver surgery patients, there is no international consensus when thrombosis prophylaxis should be commenced in patients undergoing liver surgery. As far as we know, there are no prospective randomized trials in this field, and current guidelines are unfortunately based on very low quality evidence, that is, a few retrospective studies and expert opinion. Both American and European thromboprophylaxis guidelines for abdominal cancer surgery support the preoperative initiation of thromboprophylaxis, but these guidelines do not specifically address the increased bleeding risk associated with liver surgery. On the contrary, Dutch guidelines recommend postoperative thromboprophylaxis only, because of lack of evidence for preoperative thromboprophylaxis. Traditionally, many liver surgery units have been reluctant in using preoperative thromboprophylaxis due to the potentially increased risk of bleeding complications. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Society Guidelines recommend preoperative thromboprophylaxis in liver surgery, but the guidelines provide no supporting evidence for this recommendation. Overall, the amount of evidence is scarce and somewhat contradictory in this clinically relevant field of thromboprophylaxis in liver surgery. The aim of this study is to compare pre- and postoperatively initiated thromboprophylaxis regimens in liver surgery in a randomized controlled trial.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy on the patency of iliac vein at 12-month post stenting in patients with acute proximal DVT and ipsilateral iliac vein stenosis who received percutaneous mechanic thrombectomy and iliac vein stenting.
The study is designed as a multicentre open label prospective feasibility trial to capture preliminary efficacy and safety information on Solitaire device to plan an appropriate pivotal study.
Direct oral anticoagulants (Rivaroxaban, Apixaban and Dabigatran) are an alternative to anti-vitamin K drugs and low molecular weight heparins in many cardiovascular diseases. This new class of anticoagulants represents a particular and very promising advance: they are administered orally, their mechanism of action is rapid and direct on coagulation and their predictable pharmacological action allows for administration at fixed doses. In contrast to anti-vitamin K, there is no need for routine biological monitoring. However, their therapeutic range is narrow and there is no routine biological monitoring. Rigorous compliance is therefore necessary. In addition, there are no official validated recommendations either for the measurement of anticoagulant activity in certain emergency situations, or for the management of severe bleeding (except recently for Pradaxa®). Their correct use requires the training and involvement of health professionals as well as information and support for patients. Pharmaceutical interviews are one of the main ways in which pharmacists can ensure this security through personalized and optimal patient care. The purpose of these interviews is to: - Reinforce the pharmacist's advisory, educational and preventive roles with patients; - To enhance the pharmacist's expertise in the area of medication; - To evaluate the patient's knowledge of his or her treatment; - To assess the patient's knowledge of his or her treatment; To seek the patient's therapeutic adherence and help him or her to take ownership of his or her treatment; - To evaluate, in the long term, the patient's appropriation of his or her treatment. In this way, they enable involvement with patients while providing a link between healthcare professionals, which is essential for optimal patient care. In recent years, numerous studies have been conducted on pharmaceutical interviews in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. On the other hand, few studies have been conducted in France to evaluate the clinical impact of pharmaceutical interviewing in medical services. The aim of this study is to compare patients' knowledge of direct oral anticoagulants between 2 cardiology departments offering or not a pharmaceutical interview.
