Filter by:Venous thrombo-embolic (VTE) rates could be high in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Indeed, the rate of VTE in this specific population could be 7-fold higher in this population. Predictiv factors of VTE in patients with ALS are mobility reduction and neurological paralysis. However, to our knowledge, medical littérature is poor concerning VTE and ALS association. Our first aim is to define annual rate of VTE in ALS population.Then we aim to identify predictiv factors of VTE in this specific population. The studied population is Brest universitary hospital cohort of ALS patient included between 2000 and 2019.
Venous thromboembolic disease is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The purpose of the RAPID registry is to collect information on the Angiovac procedure and Angiovac device used in the treatment of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), right heart pathology and pulmonary embolism.
Although pharmacologic and mechanical methods to prevent VTE are safe, effective, cost-effective, and advocated by authoritative guidelines,many studies continue to demonstrate that these preventive methods are significantly underutilized, especially in China.A number of quality improvements (QI) program have been established in several countries or hospitals.However,no exit effective protocol has been demonstrated well enough or adequate to drive breakthrough levels of improvement. A reliable and practical QI that can support hospitals or physicians in China is warranted.To evaluate the multifaceted quality improvement intervention effect in clinical setting, we will conduct a cluster-randomized clinical trial among China PUlmonary Thromboembolism REgistry Study (CURES) group, aiming to test whether it's applicable to real-world practice in China. A multicenter, two-arms, open-label clinical trial has been designed to determine whether the system-wide multifaceted intervention could increase the rate of at-risk participants who received prophylaxis (RP) and decrease the incidence of any hospital-associated VTE in 90 days during and after hospital admission. .Selected hospital will be regarded as a cluster and randomized into interventional or control group.In interventional group, eligible hospitalized patients will receive a variety of the multifaceted quality improvement(QI) interventions since admitted in hospital.In control group, patients will receive no more than common recommended care or an existing policy.The primary outcomes are the proportion of appropriate prophylaxis in hospitalized patients and the incidence of HA-VTE in 90 days after hospital admission.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication of malignancies, in particular to lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer in surgical and medical departments are at high risk of VTE development. Prophylaxis is one major way to to prevent it. Currently, VTE prophylaxis is mainly based on VTE-risk assessment. However, all patients hospitalized for cancer are at intermediate or high risk of VTE but their bleeding risk vary. To improve effect of VTE prophylaxis and reduce bleeding events in patients with lung cancer, we will conduct an open-label parallel randomized clinical tria to assess the effect of bleeding risk based prophylaxis strategy among lung cancer patients. We hypothesize that VTE prophylaxis based on bleeding risk assessment with a short post-discharge treatment course is superior to VTE propohylaxis based on VTE risk assessment among hospitalized patients with lung cancer A sample of 3200 eligible patients will be randomized into experimental or control group with an allocation rate of 1:1. Stratified by medical/surgical units, block randomization with a varying block size of 4 or 6 will be adopted to randomize patients into experimental or control group. In experimental group, patients will undergo bleeding risk assessment and receive prophylaxis according to bleeding risk during hospitalization, and they will also receive an extended pharmacological prophylaxis of 5mg Rivaroxaban once daily for up to 15 consecutive days after discharge. In control group, patients will receive routine VTE prophylaxis, VTE risk assessment and prophylaxis if indicated during hospitalization according to current policies for hospitals in China but no further treatment prophylaxis after discharge. Patients in both groups will be followed up for 30 days. The primary outcome is symptomatic and asymptomatic objectively proven VTE (deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or pulmonary embolism (PE)) within 30 days after initiation of randomization. Ultrasound and CTPA will be performed to detect DVT and PE, respectively. Clinically relevant bleeding (non-major clinically relevant and major bleeding, HIT) and death are secondary outcomes.
The HOKUSAI post VTE study contains of two different research questions; one on the long term outcomes of deep vein thrombosis and one on the long term effects of pulmonary embolism, post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) respectively. Our aim of the study is to compare the long term outcomes along with the quality of life assessment of VTE in a group treated with heparin+VKA versus a group treated with heparin+edoxaban in the acute setting.
Open and multicenter randomized clinical trial (1:1) comparing limited screening with extended screening with the performance of Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scan in the search for neoplasms in patients with unprovoked venous thromboembolic disease at high risk of developing cancer at follow-up. Introduction: Cancer screening in patients with unprovoked venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is controversial. In the last years, a score has been developed that selects patients at high risk of developing cancer during follow-up. Objective: To estimate the impact of an active cancer search strategy using 18-fluordesoxiglucose (FDG) PET-CT in unprovoked VTE with high-risk to develop cancer. Specific Objectives: 1) Number of neoplasms diagnosed in the screening process: 2) number of neoplasms diagnosed at an early stage, 3) impact on survival of the strategy; and 4) impact on the quality of life. Cancer will be considered from 30 days up to 12 months after the diagnosis of VTE. Scope: 20 Spanish hospitals. Design: Open-label, multicentre Randomized clinical trial (1: 1) comparing the performance of PET-CT versus limited screening for cancer. Population: Patients older than 18 years with unprovoked VTE at high risk of presenting cancer at follow-up (≥3 points in the score of Jara-Palomares et al., Chest 2017). Follow-up: 12 months after VTE. Sample: The sample size calculated is 650 patients, to obtain a power of 80%, with a level of significance of 5%, and taking into account a 10% loss of follow-up.
Study objective is to determine whether there is an association between genetic variant risk scores and clinical outcomes (percent time in therapeutic range, time to reach therapeutic international normalized ratio (INR), INR ≥ 4, bleeding event, ischemic stroke, death) in participants taking warfarin for atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and/or intracardiac thrombosis.
The implications of the medico-economic impact are essential in the choice of first-line therapists. The economic impact is an important criterion to recommend the privileged use of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (AOD) in first intention.
Young women have an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) during hormonale exposure (estrogen-containing pill or pregnancy). In order to detect women at higher risk of VTE during hormonal exposure, thrombophilia testing is often performed in order to adapt contraception methods and/or to increases thromboprophylaxy during pregnancy. However, such practice is probably not accurate nor discriminent. Indeed, there are evidence that the impact of the familial history of VTE might be stronger than that of detectable inherited thrombophilia. The "FIT-H" study is a cross-sectional study comparing the prevalence of previous venous thromboembolism in first-degree relatives of women (propositi) who had a first episode of venous thromboembolism in association with hormonal exposure with the prevalence of previous venous thromboembolism in first-degree relatives of women who did not have venous thromboembolism during a similar hormonal exposure. The primary objective is to determine the association between the presence or the absence of VTE in young women during hormonal exposure and the presence or the absence of a previous episode of VTE in their first-degree relatives. Secondary objective is to determine the impact of associated inherited thrombophilia on the risk of VTE in first-degree relatives.
Hospitalized patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of solid tumor malignancy, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma and who are at high risk for a venous thromboembolism will be randomized to standard dose versus intermediate dose enoxaparin.
