Filter by:This study is to identify the following problems and questions with respect to the safety and effectiveness of Xarelto in comparison with other pharmacologic agents in the prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in a large sample of patients who undergo elective total hip replacement (THR) or total knee replacement (TKR) in the real-life conditions in its registered indication(s) as required by Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). 1. Known and unknown adverse reactions, especially serious adverse reactions 2. Incidence of adverse reactions under the routine drug use 3. Factors that may affect the safety of the drug 4. Factors that may affect the effectiveness of the drug 5. Other safety information related to overuse, drug interaction and laboratory abnormalities 6. Other adverse reactions
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the oral dose of YM150 for prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with acute medical illness.
Brain injured patients are at high risk for forming blood clots in the legs and lungs. For non-brain injured trauma patients, we decrease the chances of these blood clots forming by placing the patients on a low dose of the blood thinner enoxaparin. Starting patients with a brain injury on the blood thinner is problematic, however, as this can theoretically cause the brain injury to worsen. Trauma surgeons wait a variable period of time before starting this blood thinner because waiting too long can result in the formation of these blood clots in the legs and lungs. Previous research has shown that some brain injuries which are of lower severity can have enoxaparin started at 24 hours after injury if the brain injury is stable on a repeated computed tomography (CT) scan of the head. This is a pilot study designed to look at the rates of worsening of brain injury if the low dose blood thinner is started at 24 versus 96 hours post-injury.
The objective of this retrospective study is to gather information about how fondaparinux is used pre-, peri- and/or postpartum for both the prophylaxis and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in order to fill an information gap concerning the off-label use of fondaparinux during pregnancy.
Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.
Long-term anticoagulation is indicated in patients for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of the thromboembolic complications associated with atrial fibrillation and/or mechanical cardiac valve replacement, prevention or treatment of venous thromboembolism (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism), to prevent thromboembolic events post-myocardial infarction, and in patients with systemic embolic events. Currently the only approved oral medication for anticoagulation is warfarin (Coumadin, Bristol-Myers Squibb and generic warfarin. Dosage is controlled by periodic determinations of the prothrombin time (PT)/International Normalized Ratio (INR). Under treatment may lead to venous or arterial thrombotic events or stroke, while over treatment may lead to major bleeding and even death. Patients require frequent INR monitoring to maintain a therapeutic level of anticoagulation. The therapeutic INR range varies by clinical indication, most commonly an INR 2-3 goal, but ranging from 1.5-4.0. Bleeding complications are more likely to occur above an INR value of 4.0. The vMetrics - Anticoagulation Management System is a remote patient management solution for Oral Anticoagulation Care patients. This system provides confirmation of patient question and testing protocols as well as virtual patient management care capability for dosage and patient scheduling. This trial will provide end points to ascertain efficiency against standard care protocol and confirm equivalent care standards.
The purpose of this prospective multicenter cohort study is to examine long-term medical outcomes, quality of life, and medical resource utilization in elderly patients (>= 65 years) with acute venous thromboembolism (i.e., acute pulmonary embolism and/or deep vein thrombosis)
The main objective of this study is to verify whether a new clinical decision rule identifying patients diagnosed with unprovoked blood clots who have a low risk of recurrence can safely stop oral anticoagulant therapy after 5-7 months of treatment.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if dalteparin can lower the risk of VTE occurring in the legs and lungs. This will be tested in patients with pancreatic cancer who are going to receive chemotherapy. Some patients will receive dalteparin and some will receive no study drug. The safety of dalteparin will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a standardized procedure to establish the optimal duration of anticoagulation in patients with venous thromboembolism.
