Filter by:SECRET examines the safety of rivaroxaban versus standard-of-care for treatment of symptomatic cerebral venous thrombosis, initiated within 14 days of diagnosis.
The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate when genetic variation in the carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) gene influences antiplatelet therapy response, as assessed by ex vivo platelet aggregometry, in healthy participants treated with clopidogrel and ticagrelor. We hypothesize that genetic variation in CES1 will significantly impact on-clopidogrel platelet aggregation while having a minimal effect in ticagrelor-treated subjects. Specific Aim: To conduct a prospective randomized crossover study of clopidogrel and ticagrelor in healthy individuals stratified by CES1 genotype. Participants will be recruited by CES1 genotype into a randomized crossover study of clopidogrel (75 mg daily for 7d) and ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily for 7d) with extensive phenotyping including ex vivo platelet aggregometry performed pre- and post-drug administration in order to assess the interaction of genotype and drug choice on on-treatment platelet function.
Patients with previous diagnosis of iliac vein thrombosis are enrolled in this registry. Using standardized questionnaire, clinical data detailing venous thromboembolism and contributing VTE risk factors are recorded. Results of technical and laboratory investigations including screening of thrombophilic disorders were additionally entered into the database.
This study evaluates two different methods for monitoring a patient's anti-clotting [heparin] therapy after they receive a heart pump implant [left ventricular assist device -LVAD]. One method tests for how long it takes the patient's blood to clot and uses that to determine if they are on the right dose of heparin. The other method uses a more direct measure of how much heparin is in the blood. The hypothesis is that the method that more directly measures how much heparin is in the patient's blood will provide better medical results for the patient's care after they have the heart pump implant. To that end, the investigators are conducting this feasibility trial to establish the logistics associated with the implementation of these heparin monitoring approaches.
The risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in DM1 and in other inherited myopathies, which can lead to chronic immobilization, are unknown. The purpose of this study is to evaluate incidence of VTE in cohort of patients presenting with DM1 with a comparison to a group of other inheritable myopathies and to a community-based population.
Pharmacists are in the best position to counsel and educate patients on anticoagulant agents such as NOACs. This should enable patients to play a more active role in their treatment and ultimately enhance adherence behaviour. However, educational elements should be targeted to knowledge. Thus, the investigators will develop and validate a questionnaire that can assess knowledge about NOACs
A study evaluating the safety and efficacy of the BioFreedom™ Biolimus A9™ coated Cobalt Chromium coronary stent system in patients at high risk of bleeding
MONITRANS project consist of developing a monitoring technology of post-operative breast reconstruction by detecting thrombosis. Its aim is to reducing time spent in hospital by monitoring patients at home. Thrombosis following to abdominal free flap harvesting for breast reconstruction is a rare phenomenon (with a 2 until 15 % frequency). Moreover, it leads to ischemia by limiting water intake in the plasma compartments. The investigator would like to prove, by this research project, that they are able to detect ischemia via bioimpedance technology. During abdominal free flap harvesting for breast reconstruction, there are few minutes where the flap is clamped because of anastomosis on the recipient vessels. The investigators would seize the opportunity of this step, which is similar to vascular thrombosis, to measure bioimpedance variations. Therefore they would like to measure variations of the flap bioimpedance before and after vascular section. Another purpose consists of developing an algorithm which will detect postoperative thrombosis.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common disease in cancer patients and one of the major causes of cancer-associated mortality. Risk for developing VTE increases when cancer patients are receiving chemotherapy. Current risk scores for predicting cancer-associated VTE in ambulatory patients had low/moderate discrimination and clinical sensitivity. These models use clinical and biochemical parameters of the patient. In the development of VTE genetics play a relevant role. The product Thrombo inCode (TiC) assess VTE risk prediction by using a combination of a genetic risk score (GRS) and clinical parameters from the patient. The investigators hypothesized that the GRS included in TiC combined with clinical parameter some of them associated with cancer could be better predicted by TiC than by current risk scores (Khorana score). After publishing the primary results in 2018, we have expanded the GRS in a external validation cohort adding gliomas and biliary tract tumors. Also we have incorporated the assessment of D-dimer in order to improve the predictive capability.
For patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT), the survival benefit of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) remains modest. This study aimed to investigate whether TACE in combination with irradiation stent placement (ISP) could prolong the survival in patients with HCC and PVTT.
