Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) device usage in preventing lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.The main question it aims to answer is provide a reference basis for determining the efficacy of IPC application during gastrointestinal surgery for preventing lower extremity DVT in patients. Participants are patients who require gastrointestinal surgery, specifically for the resection of gastrointestinal tumors. They will be divided into a control group and an experimental group. The experimental group will use an Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) device during surgery, while the control group will receive standard treatment. The objective is to observe whether the use of IPC during surgery can prevent the formation of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) or lower the Risk of DVT.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the second leading cause of death in patients with cancer, after disease progression. VTE is increasingly recognized as a complication in patients with hematologic malignancies and various studies have reported high rates of VTE. Critically ill patients are at high risk of VTE and should all receive thromboprophylaxis. Given the increasing number of patients with HM (hematologic malignancies) / HCT (Hematopoietic cell transplantation) who develop critical illness, and their often prolonged course, it is imperative to understand the incidence and risk factors for VTE, and to evaluate the efficacy and risks associated with both chemical and mechanical thromboprophylaxis Therefore, the investigators plan to evaluate retrospectively the VTE / PE (pulmonary embolism) incidence in HM /HCT patients at the University of Toronto, and the complications associated with it (including death). In addition, the investigators want to evaluate the use, type (mechanical or pharmacological) and timing of thromboprophylaxis. And lastly, the investigators will determine the incidence of bleeding and of complications associated with chemical and mechanical thromboprophylaxis. The investigators will describe the change in VTE incidence over the last 10 years. The investigators know that patients with COVID-19 infection are at higher risk of thrombosis than non-COVID patients. As such, HM/HCT COVID-19 pts will comprise a subgroup, which will be compared with patients who are not not positive for COVID-19. If these numbers are low, COVID-19 status will be included as a predictive variable in our modelling. The results of this research program will help define indications and safety of VTE prophylaxis; and will inform the development of clinical practice guidelines.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of SHR-2004 injection in healthy subjects. In addition, this study will provide information on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SHR-2004 injection in healthy subjects.
Background: venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common complication in critically ill patients, admitted to the Intensive Care Units (ICUs). At the present time, there is no validated score to estimate risks and benefits of antithrombotic pharmacological prophylaxis in this subset of patients. Aim of the study: investigating potential harms and benefits of a protocol for systematic screening of DVT in critically ill patients, admitted to an ICU. Expected relevance: systematic screening for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) through ultrasound (US) lower limb veins examination could help defining the indication to antithrombotic pharmacological treatment, but no protocol of systematic screening has been validated so far. Furthermore, the screening could be associated with over-diagnosis and consequent over-treatment, as well as increased management burden for the caregivers and higher healthcare costs.
This retrospective cohort study aims to characterise outcomes for patients treated on an intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19 in England and Wales, one year after discharge from hospital. Outcomes will be compared with patients admitted as an emergency to an ICU for other conditions. The study will use existing national audit data linked to routine healthcare datasets.
In patients with symptoms of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) (mainly deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE)), the study will evaluate the agreement between the D-Dimer measurements from the LumiraDx POC D-Dimer assay and a reference method, as an aid in diagnosis, assessment and exclusion of DVT and PE.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the optimal duration of anticoagulation therapy (6 months versus 18 months) with direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) for cancer-associated low-risk pulmonary embolism patients. The major secondary purpose of this study is to investigate whether home treatment of cancer-associated low-risk pulmonary embolism patients with rivaroxaban is feasible, effective, and safe through an observational management study.
Patients with Myeloproliferative neoplasms are at particular risk for developing arterial and venous thrombosis, especially thrombosis in the splanchnic venous system. The patho-physiology and natural history of MPN related SVT is poorly understood and treatment algorithms vary greatly. This is of considerable importance since the morbidity and mortality in this group of patients is high. This study aims to observe patients with MPN related SVT over a period of five years to document their clinical progress. Methods of observation include clinical assessment, standard investigations and laboratory based research investigations
This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, non-blinded clinical trial designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of the Vesper DUO Venous Stent System as compared to a pre-defined performance goal (PG) established from published, peer reviewed scientific literature related to stenting of iliofemoral venous outflow obstructions.
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) includes the abnormal clotting of blood in a deep vein of the upper or lower limbs (deep vein thrombosis) that may travel to and block a blood vessel in the lung (pulmonary embolism). Some people with sickle cell disease (SCD)-a red blood cell disorder-seem to be at greater risk for developing these blood clots. Researchers want to study the blood of people with SCD and VTE as well as healthy people to develop better treatments to prevent blood clots. Objective: To study blood clotting in SCD because it is the most common cause of vascular death after a heart attack or stroke. Eligibility: People ages 18-80 who have SCD (with or without a history of blood clots) or the trait for SCD, and healthy volunteers Design: Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and medical records review. They will give blood samples. Participants will have phone calls either every 3 months or once a year, for 2 years. They will give updates on their health. They may give additional medical records. The phone calls may last up to 30 minutes. If participants have a VTE or pain crisis episode, they may visit the Clinical Center. These visits may last up to 4 hours. They will repeat the screening tests and give blood samples. Some participants may be invited to take part in blood studies. After 2 years, some participants will have a follow-up visit at the Clinical Center. Participation will last for about 2 years.
