Filter by:This is an observational trial to estimate the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in total knee replacement patients who received an intraoperative dose of tranexamic acid.
The purpose of the study is to give the proof of concept of the Fibrin structure assay on STA-R® prototype. It aims to identify the parameters which discriminate the pathologic from the normal population. Secondary objectives are to determine the precision of the assay, to record the Fibrin activity, comparatively with thromboelastography on TEG®, in a coagulation activation assay and in a coagulation-lysis assay.
The pharmacoinvasive approach after thrombolysis is the standard treatment of myocardial infarction when deadlines are too long for primary angioplasty. Coronary angioplasty is then carried out within 3 to 24 hours following thrombolysis. The adjuvant antiplatelet therapy of thrombolysis combines aspirin with clopidogrel (75 or 300 mg depending on age). These clopidogrel doses are associated with a very low anti-platelet aggregation response within 24 hours following administration. However, the antiplatelet agregation that inhibits the progression of intracoronary thrombus must be optimal at the time of angioplasty to reduce the risk of thrombotic events. Intracoronary thrombus residual angiographic post-thrombolysis was associated with impaired myocardial reperfusion but coronary angiography has a very low sensitivity for detecting the thrombus. The optical coherence tomography (OCT) is currently the method of choice to visualize and quantify the intracoronary thrombus. It is used routinely in the presence of a thrombus to correctly estimate the size of the artery and for the evaluation of good stent apposition. The thrombectomy at the time of angioplasty improves myocardial reperfusion, particularly in case of major thrombotic mass. Intracoronary thrombus residual post-thrombolysis could be a marker for the quality of reperfusion itself correlated to the quality of the antiplatelet post-thrombolysis. The investigators therefore hypothesize that the systematic use of the OCT before elective angioplasty (within 3 to 24 hours) after successful thrombolysis could be used to guide the use of thrombectomy and adequate stenting and thus improve myocardial reperfusion. Our study will also correlate the importance of the residual thrombus before angioplasty myocardial reperfusion one hand and to the inhibition of platelet activity observed other.
The Purpose of this study is to characterize the single and multiple-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/ PD) profiles after oral rivaroxaban therapy administered to pediatric participants 2 to 8 years of age with single ventricle physiology who have completed the Fontan procedure within 4 months prior to enrollment (Part A) and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban, administered twice daily (exposure matched to rivaroxaban 10 milligram [mg] once daily in adults) compared to acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), given once daily (approximately 5 milligram per kilogram [mg/kg]) for thromboprophylaxis in pediatric participants 2 to 8 years of age with single ventricle physiology who have completed the Fontan procedure within 4 months prior to enrollment.
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.
In clinical practice, compression ultrasound (CUS) has become an easy and reliable noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Currently there are not validated methods to assess the biological age of venous thrombus, and the date of onset of thrombosis. One potential technique to age DVT is ultrasound elastography (UE). UE is a noninvasive technique to measure tissue hardness, and it is well known that thrombi harden as they age. The aim of this study will be to assess the ability of UE to distinguish acute from chronic DVT. The investigators will evaluate prospectively all consecutive outpatients presenting with clinically suspected unprovoked DVT of the lower limbs, and those having a previous diagnosis of DVT for the scheduled 3 months visit of follow-up, for a period of about one year. All the enrolled patients will undergo to the CUS of the lower limbs, and at the same time to the ultrasound elastography by the physician expert in vascular ultrasound. The specialist performing both examinations will be unaware of the time of onset of DVT (acute or chronic). Then the patients will be divided into two groups (group A: patients with acute DVT; group B: patients with chronic DVT at the 3rd month of follow-up). Each examination (CUS and ultrasound elastography) will be repeated three times in the same patient at the same visit, to assess the reproducibility of the technique. The demographic data, medical history, physical examination and the results of CUS and ultrasound elastography will be collected in a case report form (CRF) by another investigator who does not perform the examinations. The blinded CRF will be submitted to a dedicated committee for statistical analysis.
The study is being conducted to assess the effects of co-administration of itraconazole or diltiazem, respectively, on the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters Cmax, AUC(INF), and AUC(0-T) of BMS-986177
The aim of the study is to measure and model interface pressure applied on the lower leg of patients at risk of veinous thrombosis, by different bandage combinations, composed of Biflex 16 (Thuasne) and/or Rosidal K (Lohmann & Rauscher). The patient specific model should better predict the interface pressure distribution than Laplace's Law.
This is an event driven Phase 3, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint evaluation (PROBE) parallel group study in subjects with confirmed VTE. This study is designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of edoxaban and to compare the efficacy and safety of edoxaban against standard of care in pediatric subjects with confirmed VTE.
The purpose of this study is to perform a pragmatic randomized controlled trial to compare the use of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH, lovenox, enoxaparin) versus acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in patients with high-risk lower extremity fractures.
