Filter by:The purpose of this Clinical Evaluation is the continued assessment of the XIENCE Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (XIENCE V® and XIENCE PRIME™ EECSS) with the primary focus on clinical outcomes in the treatment of female patients with de novo coronary artery lesions, and the characterization of the female population undergoing stent implantation with a XIENCE stent.
This is a prospective, randomized, active-controlled, open label, parallel two-arm, multi-center, post-approval study descriptively comparing the XIENCE V EECSS to the CYPHER SELECT PLUS Sirolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System (SECSS) ("CYPHER SELECT PLUS") during commercial use in China.
In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CAGB) surgery, aspirin is commonly prescribed to prevent graft thrombosis and myocardial ischemia. However, there are still a significant number of grafts occluding in the postoperative period. This is partly attributed to reduced aspirin responsiveness, also called "aspirin resistance". At the moment, no standardized definition or laboratory test is available to quantify "aspirin resistance", and strong platelet reactivity in laboratory tests is not necessarily associated with increased thrombotic events. However, there is increasing evidence that reduced aspirin responsiveness in platelet function analyzers is associated with adverse long-term outcome and higher incidence of major adverse events in patients with stable coronary artery disease and in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery, the predictive value of a laboratory finding of reduced aspirin responsiveness remains unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate whether the pre- and/or postoperative laboratory finding of reduced aspirin responsiveness defined by MultiplateTM platelet function analyzer is associated with higher incidences of adverse outcome after 30 days and 12 months in patients undergoing CABG surgery.
The first study with rivaroxaban in pediatric subjects is a Phase I study, where the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile of rivaroxaban will be investigated to confirm that the exposure is comparable to adults. This study is a single dose study with multiple PK/PD measurements in pediatric subjects at the end of their Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate factor levels of the pro coagulant factors II, VII, IX, X, and the anticoagulant factors protein C and S in healthy volunteers during the intake of elevated levels of vitamin K in order to investigate whether there is any evidence that high dose vitamin K intake increases plasma coagulation factor activity.
The issue to be studied is the prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in hospitalized pediatric patients, and to identify if there are subgroups of patients who may be at higher risk. There are two hypotheses that will be looked at in this study. The first hypothesis is that individual risk factors for VTE in hospitalized pediatric patients are: age >14, obesity, black race, female sex, presence of a central venous line (CVL), traumatic mechanism of injury, orthopaedic surgery, and use of oral contraceptives. The second hypothesis is that risk factors have an additive effect such that risk stratification can be developed to identify those patients with the highest risk.
This protocol will serve as a pilot study to determine the validity and feasibility of contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without and with contrast and/or ultrasound (US) for detection of catheter related deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in children
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients receiving chemotherapy may help doctors learn more about the effects of chemotherapy on cells. It may also help doctors understand how patients respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers related to thrombosis in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma receiving chemotherapy.
Treatment of myocardial infarction (blood clot in the arteries of the heart) has improved after introduction of 24/7 balloon angioplasty to open the blocked artery. However, the clot itself is not routinely removed but recent data in smaller trials indicate that this might improve recovery and prognosis. In this multicenter study of 5000 patients referred to Scandinavian hospitals for myocardial infarction the investigators test the hypothesis that patients randomized to treatment with thrombus aspiration (removing the blood clot by manual suction) before conventional angioplasty will have a reduced risk of death, fewer rehospitalisations, fewer new myocardial infarctions, reduced risk of heart failure, better coronary artery flow after angioplasty and greater reduction of infarct size compared to patients randomized to conventional angioplasty alone.
The objectives of this post-marketing surveillance, conducted in Japan, is to know the frequency, type and degree of device malfunction, to assure the safety of the medical device, and to collect information on evaluation of the efficacy and safety.
