Filter by:Inflammatory diseases favour the onset of venous thromboembolic events in hospitalized patients. Thromboprophylaxis with a fixed dose of heparin/low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is recommended if concomitant inflammatory disease. In severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) pneumonia an inflammation-dependent thrombotic process occurs and platelet activation may promote thrombosis and amplify inflammation, as indicated by previous experimental evidence, and the similarities with atherothrombosis and thrombotic microangiopathies. Antiplatelet agents represent the cornerstone in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic arterial thromboembolism, with limited efficacy in the context of venous thromboembolism. The use of acetylsalicylic acid may improve inflammation and respiratory function in humans as indicated by the results of observational studies. There are no validated protocols for thrombosis prevention in Covid-19. There is scientific rationale to consider acetylsalicylic acid for the prevention of thrombosis in the pulmonary circulation and attenuation of inflammation. This is supported by numerous demonstrations of the anti-inflammatory activity of antiplatelet agents and the evidence of improvement in respiratory function both in human and experimental pathology. The hypothesis underlying the present study project is that in Covid-19 platelet activation occurs through an inflammation-dependent mechanism and that early antithrombotic prophylaxis in non-critical patients could reduce the incidence of pulmonary thrombosis and respiratory and multi-organ failure improving clinical outcome in patients with SARS-CoV2 pneumonia. The prevention of thrombogenic platelet activity with acetylsalicylic acid could be superior to fixed dose enoxaparin alone. The proposed treatment is feasible in all coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, regardless of the treatment regimen (antivirals, anti-inflammatory drugs), except for specific contraindications. To this aim, the investigators a randomised, placebo-controlled, double blind, parallel arms study to investigate the potential protection of acetylsalicylic acid towards the progression of lung failure in patients admitted to a medical ward for SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia. A 15-day treatment period is considered. Primary endpoint is the occurrence of one of the following events: admission to an intensive care unit, requirement of mechanical ventilation, PaO2/FiO2 less than 150 mm Hg.

Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a venous reflux disorder caused by abnormal coagulation of blood in the deep vein, which usually occurs in the lower extremities. After thrombosis, venous valve function is often destroyed, causing lower limb swelling, ulcers and other congestive diseases, affecting the quality of life of patients; thrombus shedding is also easy to cause pulmonary embolism, serious cases can lead to sudden death. Therefore, the accurate diagnosis and curative effect evaluation of DVT are of great significance to the prognosis of patients. At present, the treatment of DVT includes systematic thrombolysis and catheter contact thrombolysis, among which oral drug thrombolysis has certain advantages in clinical application. However, in the process of thrombosis, the composition of thrombus is different in different periods, thus, defining the staging of thrombus plays an important role in the decision-making of drug treatment. In view of the high resolution of magnetic resonance imaging of soft tissue, thrombus can be directly imaged. Therefore, this project will take the staging diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis as the starting point. Through the development of magnetic resonance imaging, this paper tries to solve the problem of evaluating the therapeutic effect of deep venous thrombosis in clinic.
Although the clinical impact of residual left atrial appendage (LAA) leaks still requires confirmation, its patency resulting from incomplete LAA closure may promote blood stagnation and thrombus formation, and increase the risk of thromboembolic events. The main purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous leak closure with radiofrequency energy applications.
The primary objective is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the implantation of the LAmbre PlusTM device in patients with large or irregularly shaped appendages with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are at increased risk for stroke and systemic embolism compared to oral anticoagulation (OAC).
Severe acute pancreatitis (AP) is a pathology with high morbidity and mortality. Portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis is a well-known local complication of AP with a variable incidence, which can reach up to 50% in case of severe AP. However, there is no specific recommendation regarding the management of Portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis. By analogy to all venous thrombosis, the European Society of Gastroenterology recommends curative anticoagulation. However, the efficacy of curative anticoagulation has never been evaluated by prospective studies. In addition, bleeding complications during AP occur in approximately 10% of patients and are associated with a poor prognosis. The investigators wish to conduct an observational multi-center study with epidemiologic aims, including all patients admitted for AP and with a diagnosis of portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic management of these patients, the efficacy and safety of anticoagulant treatment for the treatment of Portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis, and their outcomes.
Cardiovascular disease, and especially myocardial infarction, is the most common cause of death globally, and is particularly common in older individuals. Practical measures that can reduce both the prevalence and incidence of cardiovascular disease are of great value. It is well known that regular physical activity has a protective effect against the development of cardiovascular diseases such as acute myocardial infarction. It has been shown that physical activity can improve the function of the heart and blood vessels, but it is less well known how physical activity can affect the risk of formation of dangerous blood clots, and thus the risk of heart attack and stroke. In a cross-sectional study it has been shown that a physically active lifestyle can reduce the risk of blood clot formation, but experimental evidence for the importance of a period of physical activity for the risk of blood clot formation is lacking. New methods have been set up for measuring the coagulation profile. The analyzes are performed on a blood sample and allow a thorough determination of platelet reactivity as well as an innovative measure of how the microstructure of a possible blood clot would develop. In this project, these methods is used to examine how physical activity, in the form of team sports, affects the coagulation profile of elderly men and women. The increasing age-related risk of cardiovascular disease is associated with endothelial dysfunction and decrease in capillary density, and it has been shown that initiation of capillary growth is a successful method to treat cardiovascular disease. Therefore, this project will also investigate how a longer period of physical activity, in the form of team sports, affects capillary density and endothelial function in men and women aged 60-70 years. Both men and women will be recruited, as it is still unknown whether men and women respond differently to physical activity in relation to coagulation profile, susceptibility to blood clots and capillary density.
