The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of a D-dimer based protocol to screen for thrombotic events in colorectal surgical patients. This study is unique because of the multistage screening process for DVT's using a standardized D-dimer testing methodology and ultrasound that will take place throughout the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative processes. The data collected from this screening study will help establish the baseline DVT rates in UTMB's colorectal surgical patients before and after surgery. Additionally, the data from this study can help determine if a D-dimer blood test has predictive value in UTMB's colorectal surgical patient population. This study may also provide preliminary evidence for further research regarding the adjustment of D-dimer cutoff values. Specifically for patient subsets such as surgical colorectal patients with a moderate pretest probability and clinical conditions associated with low test specificity
To see whether our increased dosing regimen of unfractionated heparin (UF) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) in COVID-19 patients was effective at preventing thrombo-embolic complications. We did regular anti-Xa tests to optimise the dose of our thromboprophylaxis. Furthermore, we want to examine the time it takes to reach adequate anti-Xa levels, to determine additional risk factors and do a subgroup analysis. Lastly, we will study if there are possible complications of our thromboprophylactic therapy.
This study is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, double-blind, positive-controlled phase II clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of different doses of SHR2285 tablets vs. enoxaparin for the prevention of postoperative venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing elective unilateral total knee arthroplasty.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, blinded endpoint study to evaluate the effect of abelacimab relative to dalteparin on venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding in patients with gastrointestinal (GI)/genitourinary (GU) cancer associated VTE (Magnolia)
This is a Phase 3,multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint evaluation study comparing the effect of abelacimab relative to apixaban on venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence and bleeding in patients with cancer associated VTE (ASTER)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with Lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitors compared to Lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitors for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT).
Data of demographic, clinical, laboratory and imaging studies of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) recipients from two transplant centers were collected. Survival and morbidity rates between patients with and without portal vein thrombosis (PVT) were compared. Risk factors of mortality in the setting of PVT were identified. Intraoperative portal flow measurements were compared before and after portal flow restoration.
Portal vein thrombosis is defined as partial or complete occlusion of the portal vein lumen by the blood clot or its replacement by multiple collateral vessels with the hepato-petal flow, known as 'portal cavernoma'. [1,2] Based on the published literature, 15-25% of patients with cirrhosis have portal vein thrombosis (PVT) [3], and 35-50% of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have malignant PVT [4] compared to 1-3.8 per 100,000 patients in the general population. [5] The reported cumulative incidence of PVT in patients of Child-Pugh A and B is 4.6% and 10.7% at 1 and 5 years respectively with higher incidence among those with decompensated disease or with an underlying hypercoagulable disorder. [6]. Similarly, the prevalence of PVT in compensated cirrhosis is around 1% which increases to 8 - 25% in liver transplant (LT) candidates and 40% in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [7,8]. Based on the published literature 7-9 % of all chronic liver disease patients have hepatic vein outflow tract obstruction (HVOTO) in the Indian population. [9] HVOTO is defined as obstruction to hepatic venous outflow at any site from the right atrium inlet to the small hepatic venules. The Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) results from occlusion of one or more hepatic veins (HV) and/or the inferior vena cava (IVC). In the West, the most common cause is HV occlusion by thrombosis. More recent Indian studies have however shown that isolated HV and combined IVC+HV obstruction are now more common. [10] In the post COVID-19 era, there has been great interest in the prothrombotic states associated with the SARS-Cov-2 virus infection, and the adverse effects of some vaccines. [11] With the availability of better molecular tests for hypercoagulable states, use of global coagulation tests (GCT) like rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), thromboelastography (TEG) and Sonoclot, use of therapeutic procedures like Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), availability of novel oral anticoagulants (NOAC), the natural course of disease can be changed with good outcomes. [12] Standard Coagulation tests (SCTs) like PT, aPTT, and platelet count are not predictive of bleeding or coagulation risk as they exclude the cellular elements of hemostasis and are unable to assess the effect of thrombomodulin and cannot assess the stage of the coagulation pathway which is affected. Global coagulation tests provide dynamic information on the coagulation pathway that is not available from conventional tests. [13]
There is no randomized controlled trial examining surveillance ultrasonography for lower limb DVT in high-risk medical-surgical ICU patients compared to a clinician-directed approach. The DETECT randomized controlled trial addresses the question of whether surveillance ultrasound in critically ill patients by facilitating DVT detection reduces the incidence of PE and lowers all cause 90-day mortality. The primary outcome is 90-day all-cause mortality.
