Filter by:Cerebral hypoperfusion and hypoxia are the major determinants of neurological outcomes following acute brain injury as proved in Traumatic Brain Injury/Sub Arachnoid Haemhorrhage literature. How the brain injury affects cerebral oxygenation in patients with CVT is not currently known. Some of the factors that can affect cerebral oxygenation in patients with CVT are Hemoglobin, PO2, PCO2, Cerebral Perfusion Pressure (or MAP) and change in Intracranial Pressure after Decompressive Craniectomy. This study is designed to study how these factors affect cerebral oxygenation and impact of Decompressive Craniectomy on the cerebral oxygenation.
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is defined as an obstruction of the portal vein. The prevalence of PVT is 10-25% and incidence is about 16% in cirrhotic patients. PVT leads to increased intrahepatic resistance, decreased portal velocities, splanchnic vasodilatation, and stagnant flow. Portal vein recanalization (PVR) with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is aimed at restoring main portal vein (PV) flow in chronic PVT. In this study, we will review the safety and outcomes of this approach.
The Purpose is to compare the safety and efficacy of the use of aspirin(ASA) with medical compression devices versus aspirin alone for venous thromboprophylaxis following knee and hip arthroplasty.
Patients will be randomised between deep venous stenting or conservative management
The use of coumarins has been a challenge for doctors because of its narrow therapeutic range and they show great inter and intra-individual variability in the dose necessary to achieve an international normalized ratio (INR) within the therapeutic range. Among the factors influencing the interindividual variability in the dose required include age, weight, Vitamin K in the diet, comorbidity as well as drug interactions and in recent years has also seen the importance of pharmacogenetic factors.
The PREVENTER Trial aims to compare the use of perioperative pharmacologic prophylaxis (subcutaneous heparin) with intermittent pneumatic compression devices (IPCs) to the use of IPCs alone for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after radical prostatectomy (RP).
The purpose of this phase 2a, multi-center, randomized controlled study, is to explore the efficacy of early prophylaxis against catheter-associated deep venous thrombosis (CADVT) in critically ill children.
This study is designed to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single intravenous dose of TS23 in healthy adults.
In neurosurgical patients, the risk for venous thromboembolic events (VTE) is high due to the relatively long duration of surgery, the high occurrence of prolonged immobilization of patients due to paresis of the legs or intracranial pathology causing inability to mobilise2. Moreover, intracranial and intraspinal tumours and subarachnoid haemorrhage cause hypercoagulability, which increases the risk on VTE. There is a high degree of diversity in attributed risk on thrombosis in the neurosurgical patient cohort. Due to this diversity, insufficient power of performed studies and lack of careful phenotyping and description of risk factors in previous studies on deep venous thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis, as yet the optimal DVT prophylaxis in neurosurgery remains unclear. A prospective randomized study with adequate power and detailed information on patient related factors (malignancy, subarachnoid haemorrhage, prevailing coagulopathies), type of surgery, duration of surgery, and postoperative immobilisation will allow us to identify the optimal treatment strategy for high risk neurosurgical patients. In the current study all patients that fulfil the inclusion criteria will be subjected to post-operative systematic evaluation of VTE by echo-duplex investigation.
This is a prospective, randomized vanguard trial of trauma patients admitted to the trauma surgery service at Intermountain Medical Center who are deemed to be at high risk for venous thromboembolism. Once identified and enrolled, subjects will be randomized to receive bilateral lower extremity duplex ultrasound surveillance versus no surveillance. The study will compare the two groups with regard to deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and major and clinically relevant bleeding episode rates, both during the index hospitalization and at 90 days post-discharge.
