Filter by:This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN7508 (called "study drug"). The study is focused on adults undergoing elective, unilateral (one side) total knee replacement (TKR) surgery. The aim of the study is to see how effective the study drug is at preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) and other related diseases after unilateral total knee replacement surgery. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from taking the study drug - How much study drug is in your blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
T-REX HMB is a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to assess the feasibility of a full trial comparing tranexamic acid (TXA) to placebo in decreasing HMB in premenopausal individuals anticoagulated for VTE. Strong data supports TXA as an effective and safe agent at decreasing HMB in the general population, but its use in those with VTE has been limited by a lack of data for its efficacy in anticoagulated individuals and theoretical concerns of its prothrombotic effects.
While blood clots after major cancer surgery are common and harmful to patients, the medications to decrease blood clot risk are seldom used after patients leave the hospital despite the recommendation of multiple professional medical societies. The reason why these medications are seldom prescribed is not well understood. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - Does surgeon education paired with an electronic medical record based decision support tool improve the guideline concordant prescription of pharmacologic venous thromboembolism after abdominopelvic cancer surgery? - Does dedicated patient education regarding blood clots at the time of hospital discharge after abdominopelvic cancer surgery improve understanding of the risk of venous thromboembolism and adherence to pharmacologic prophylaxis? The investigators will study these questions using a stepped-wedge randomized trial where groups of surgeons will use a tool integrated to the electronic medical record to educate them on the individualized patient risks of blood clots after major cancer surgery and inform them regarding guidelines for preventative medicines. Utilization of the medications before and after using the tool will be compared. Patients will be administered a questionnaire assessing their awareness of blood clots as a risk after cancer surgery. For those prescribed medications to reduce blood clot risk after leaving the hospital, the questionnaire will evaluate whether they took the medications as prescribed. Survey results will be evaluated before and after implementation of education on blood clot risk at the time of hospital discharge.
Together with individual predisposition to form vascular clots and clinical conditions that further increase this risk, venous thromboembolism (VTE) poses a significant additional morbidity and mortality risk for the majority of the world's population. Although VTE causes serious disability and death when undiagnosed, it is a medical condition that can be prevented when diagnosed early. Although all hospitalized patients are at risk of DVT, studies have shown that 75% of hospitalized patients are hospitalized in internal clinics.As a result of this observational study, it was aimed to determine the VTE risk levels of the patients from the time of hospitalization and to determine preventive nursing care for VTE.
The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of Xueshuantong (lyophilized) for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients at risk of bleeding.
Purpose of the pilot trial: To assess the feasibility of a full-scale, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial assessing whether low-dose colchicine (0.5 mg daily) reduces the risk of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) in patients with proximal lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Two groups of patients will be compared: One group of patients with a history of venous thromboembolic disease and one group without. Both groups will be subjected to a walking test and with electrocardiogram measurements and blood tests.
The aim of the study isto evaluate the inter-observer reliability of the assessment of venous thromboembolic risk using the TRiP(cast) score in patients presenting with trauma to a lower limb requiring immobilisation, and of the clinicians' assessment using the physician's implicit probability (gestalt) compared with the use of the TRiP(cast) score.
The investigators are studying whether treatment with a proton pump inhibitor called omeprazole reduces gastrointestinal bleeding in older adults taking blood thinners for a blood clot (venous thromboembolism). The purpose of this study, a pilot study or a feasibility study, is to test the study plan and determine whether enough participants will join a larger study and accept the study procedures.
Smart technologies, such as wearable devices, mobile technologies, and artificial intelligence, are being investigated for use in health management. These technologies have the potential to be applied in disease pre-warning, decision-making support, health education, and healthcare maintenance. They are expected to address the challenges in managing thrombosis, improve access to high-quality medical resources in various regions, and enhance the development of a network for thrombosis rescue and treatment prevention. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of mobile venous thromboembolism application (mVTEA) based patient-centered management of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) on the long-term outcome of PTE patients, in order to enhance clinical practice and establish a foundation of evidence for managing patients with PTE.
