Traumatic lesions are the leading causes of admission to the emergency center (39%), isolated non-surgical lower limbs trauma are in the foreground. Two recent meta-analyzes suggest the value of Low Molecular Weight Heparins (LMWH) which would reduce symptomatic Thromboembolism Events (TE) in patients with lower limb trauma. However, many recent studies conclude to the need of stratifying the TE risk according to the patient and the nature of his trauma to obtain an individualized therapeutic decision. The retrospectively established L-TRIP (cast) score allows stratification of the risk without taking into account the type of trauma. The TIP score (Trauma, Immobilization and Patient) was established by consensus of international experts via the Delphi method. We suggest that the application of the TIP score to rationalize indications of thromboprophylaxis in patients with isolated non-surgical trauma of a lower limb should reduce the rate of anticoagulation prescription without increasing the risk of symptomatic thromboembolic complications with a direct benefit for patients and medico-economic for the society.
'The PACT trial' is randomized pilot trial to demonstrate the feasibility and potential effectiveness of a personal "fitness tracker" to improve adherence to an activity regimen following an initial acute DVT in children.
The research team's aim is to investigate the effects of the team's soft robotic socks in providing assisted ankle dorsiflexion-plantarflexion and promoting venous blood flow in stroke patients. Specifically, the investigators intend to 1) observe the development of joint contracture in terms of the range of motion of the ankle joint given the use of the device 2) monitor the presence of blood clots in the deep veins using compression Duplex ultrasonography given the use of the sock device. The investigators hypothesize that a soft robotics approach can provide compliant actuation to simulate natural ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion, which will consequently promote blood circulation in the lower leg of stroke patients who have not previously developed ankle joint contracture. This will prevent the occurrence of DVT and movement in the ankle joint will alleviate stiffness. This robotic sock intervention is to prevent the development of ankle joint contracture so established ankle contractures will be excluded from this study.
Introduction: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic phenomenon, poorly understood and difficult to predict, complicating intense ovarian stimulation cycle. The most severe symptoms, which associate vascular permeability disorders and hypercoagulability, occur in 0.2 to 1% of the cases and often require intensive care. Activation of endothelial, platelet, erythrocyte or leukocyte cells trigger the release of small specific vesicles, called microparticles, used as markers. Classically leading to endothelial dysfunction and hypercoagulability, the endothelial activation phenomenon could constitute the main cause of OHSS or help predict its severity, as established for various other diseases (cerebral stroke, infarct and lupus…). However, so far, this endothelial activation role has never been studied. Objectives: Evaluate the serum level of microparticles as a predictor of adverse outcomes; correlate it to hypercoagulability and changes of endothelial permeability associated with this syndrome. Methodology: Prospective Pilote Cohort study, evaluating before and throughout the ovarian stimulation cycle (6 samples/patient), the serum modulation of: - Endothelial activation markers (endothelial-derived microparticles, E-selectin) - Procoagulant markers (microparticles from platelet, erythrocyte or leukocyte origin, Von Willbrand factor, thrombin-antithrombin complex, prothrombin fragment 1+2) - Endothelial disjunction marker (soluble CD 146) A group of 50 patients will be assessed Techniques: Flow cytometry for measurement of microparticles expressing non specific (Annexin V) and cell specific surface determinants (CD 31, CD 41, CD 45 or glycophorin A). Use of commercial kits for other serum markers.
The primary objective in this cross-sectional study is to assess the prevalence of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) in the two treatment arms of the RE-COVER studies (warfarin versus dabigatran). PTS will be assessed by the recently developed Patient Reported Villalta (PRV) Score. Secondary objectives: to assess in both treatment arms the 1. Prevalence of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) after the discontinuation of study treatment. 2. Prevalence of PTS determined by the standard Villalta score. 3. Health related Quality of Life (HRQoL).
The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of venous thromboembolism prophylaxis by the combination of graduated compression stockings (GCS), standard doses of low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWH) and sequential compression device (SCD) in the mixed group of surgical patients at high and extremely high risk for venous thromboembolism.
This is a Clinical Trial on the use of Point Of Care Ultrasound for the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and its effect on length of hospital stay. 25 participants with suspicion of DVT according to Wells Criteria were randomized to one of two groups: Point of Care Ultrasound and Echo Doppler Ultrasound (POCUS + EDUS), and the control group was submitted only to the Echo Doppler Ultrasound (EDUS). The primary outcome was hospital stay.
In human purified platelets, only thrombin, and not the other platelet agonists, leads to a transient activation of the protein kinase activated by AMP (AMPK) and to phosphorylation of its "bona fide" substrate, ACC on its Ser79. ACC phosphorylation (P-ACC) can be an interesting marker of thrombin action on platelets. Indeed platelet and coagulation interplay, though undoubtedly present in atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis, remains difficult to assess. Our group showed that atherosclerotic mice (SRBI/Apolipoprotein E knock-out) had higher platelet P-ACC compared to corresponding control mice (C57BL6). In agreement with these data, preliminary results showed increased platelet P-ACC in a small cohort of patients admitted for coronary angiogram, with demonstrated coronary artery disease (CAD). In the light of our preliminary results, we sought to analyze platelet P-ACC in a large prospective clinical trial (ACCTHEROMA) in patients admitted for coronary angiogram. The aim of the study is to compare platelet P-ACC in platelets of patients with CAD and more particularly in unstable CAD patients to non-CAD patients. This study could potentially identify patients at high risk of future ischemic cardiovascular events, because of a higher level of thrombin generation.
Cerebral hypoperfusion and hypoxia are the major determinants of neurological outcomes following acute brain injury as proved in Traumatic Brain Injury/Sub Arachnoid Haemhorrhage literature. How the brain injury affects cerebral oxygenation in patients with CVT is not currently known. Some of the factors that can affect cerebral oxygenation in patients with CVT are Hemoglobin, PO2, PCO2, Cerebral Perfusion Pressure (or MAP) and change in Intracranial Pressure after Decompressive Craniectomy. This study is designed to study how these factors affect cerebral oxygenation and impact of Decompressive Craniectomy on the cerebral oxygenation.
