Filter by:The InferiorVena Cava (IVC) with filters has been recommended when there is a contraindication or a failure of anticoagulation. Due to the side effects related to the filters, it is recommended to remove them as soon as possible. It's a retrospective study in a French hospital to evaluate the retrieval rate and predictors of filter removal. All the data of consecutive patients who had a retrievable InferiorVena Cava Filter (IVCF) inserted in the investigator center between April 2012 and November 2019 are included.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE - blood clots that form in deep veins or in the lungs) has been identified as a leading cause of death in economically developed countries for pregnant and recently-pregnant women. There is evidence that clotting parameters can take up to 6 weeks to return to normal for women who have had term deliveries, however there is an absence of information on time taken for clotting parameters to normalise following abortion. As such, existing guidelines are based solely on expert opinion and recommend durations of VTE prevention from as short as 7 days, up to 6 weeks following abortion. All women are assessed for risk of VTE, but data are needed to inform an evidence-based approach to prevention of VTE in these women. The findings from this pilot study have the potential to inform clinical guidance and possibly a larger study subsequently.
Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) are at significantly increased risk of thrombosis and bleeding relative to those with normal renal function which makes anticoagulation particularly challenging. Further, ESRD patients undergoing initiation of anticoagulation for acute VTE are often kept in the hospital for heparin "bridging" which may lead to a protracted length-of-stay (LOS) and may place patients at risk for hospital-associated complications. The advent of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) has offered physicians choices in the management of venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, evidence suggests that rivaroxaban and dabigatran are associated with a higher risk of bleeding in ESRD patients. In contrast, research suggests that apixaban may be safer in patients with ESRD, and recent evidence suggests lower bleeding rates in ESRD patients treated for atrial fibrillation with apixaban compared to those treated with warfarin. However, to date, no large national cohort studies have examined the safety, effectiveness, and healthcare utilization of apixaban in patients with ESRD who have acute VTE. The investigators propose to use the Standard Analytic Files from the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) for years 2014 through 2018 to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and healthcare utilization of ESRD patients initiated on apixaban compared to those initiated on warfarin (following heparin) to treat acute VTE.
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.
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.
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.
The rate of venous thromboembolic events in trauma patients at high risk for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism receiving low dose unfractionated heparin every 8 hours will be equivalent or less than a similar group of patients given a standard every 12 hour dose of low molecular weight heparin.
The use of a new generation low molecular weight heparin (Bemiparin)and the well known LMWH (Enoxaparin) after Caesarean sections and vaginal deliveries in a risky group patients for venous thrombosis.
This pilot study aims at validating 18F-flourodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) in the detection and characterization of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in the entire human body, especially deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). On completion of this study the investigators will hopefully be able to demonstrate the importance of functional/molecular imaging technique in managing patients with this common and potentially fatal disorder.
