Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

Gastrointestinal system bleedings are medical emergencies and the most common cause of hospital admissions related to digestive system diseases. Gastrointestinal system bleedings are a frequently encountered condition and one of the significant reasons leading to morbidity, mortality, and medical care costs. For acute upper gastrointestinal system bleedings, the annual hospital admission incidence in the United States is approximately 67 per 100,000 adults, making it more common than lower gastrointestinal system bleedings. Approximately 80% of acute upper gastrointestinal system bleedings are attributed to non-variceal causes. Endoscopy is an invasive procedure used for diagnosis and treatment in upper gastrointestinal system bleedings. . In recent years, there has been an increase in endoscopy and endoscopic treatment rates. Except for variceal bleedings, most upper gastrointestinal system bleedings stop without the need for endoscopic intervention. However, some patients require endoscopic intervention and identifying this high-risk group, prone to recurrent bleeding, through non-invasive tests is crucial. In investigators' prospective study, researcher aimed to facilitate the identification of patients who require intervention and undergo endoscopic intervention (e.g., epinephrine injection, hemoclips, thermal coagulation, argon plasma coagulation, etc.) among those who underwent endoscopy within the first 24 hours after admission to the hospital's emergency department with a diagnosis of non-variceal acute upper gastrointestinal system bleeding. Investigators sought to achieve this by determining the relevant parameters related to their clinical and laboratory findings, comorbidities, and demographic characteristics at the time of admission. This approach aims to reduce hospital admissions, hospital stay, and costs, and particularly to minimize interventional procedures during seizures and decrease complications.As of August 2022, patients who applied to the Ankara Bilkent City Hospital emergency department were followed up.

Postpartum haemorrhage remains at the top of the causes of maternal deaths in both developed and developing countries .

Dijon University Hospital and the Dijon-based NVH Medicinal Company have developed a recombinant mini-collagen NVH020B with platelet and Willebrand factor binding activity. Its small size and granular, non-fibrillar presentation make it suitable for use as an injectable hemostat in patients with a hemorrhage or other emergency under antiplatelet therapy.

Inherited bleeding disorders (IBD) consist of a heterogeneous group of diseases including coagulation and/or platelets defects and more rarely vascular dysfunctions. A family of four patients suffering from unexplained excessive bleeding has been followed clinically in France for many years. Recently, whole exome sequencing (WES) of DNA allowed the identification of a heterozygous genetic variant which segregated to family members with bleeding diathesis. The aim of the study was to better characterize the phenotype by studying VWF and platelets in affected family members ultimately contributing to the pathogenesis of a bleeding diathesis.

This study sought to develop and validate a new risk stratification score (Henan predicting the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage score, Henan-PRIHS) based on intra-arterial contrast enhanced Flat Detector CT (IA-CEFDCT) to predict symptomatic intra-cerebral hemorrhage (sICH) after stroke thrombectomy.

Transient focal neurological episode (TFNE) is the most frequent presenting symptom of convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) in elderly patients with non-traumatic cSAH with suspected, possible or probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). The aim of our study was to analyse in detail clinical and MRI characteristics in these patients. Methods: We performed a retrospective study analysing baseline, acute clinical symptom (TFNE and headache), and MRI characteristics (acute cSAH and chronic CAA features) of consecutive elderly (≥55 years) patients, recruited and registered in the stroke database, between june 2008 and october 2020 of two centres (Nîmes and Montpellier University Hospital, France), presenting with cSAH with suspected, possible, or probable CAA.

factors associated with increase risk of post tonsillectomy hemorrhage and score of associated factors

This is an observational study in which patient data from the past of females with heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is studied. • HMB describes menstrual periods with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding. Women concerned may not be able to maintain their usual activities during their period. Thus, HMB can reduce the quality of life and may lead to other medical problems. It is described that up to 30 of 100 women ask doctors for help concerning HMB during their fertile years. HMB is often not recognized and treated timely. In addition, there is little information about characteristics of women with HMB and real-world data on available treatments are missing. Despite the availability of non-invasive therapeutic options, for some women with severe HMB, surgical treatments (also called invasive) may be needed that can lead to infertility. In this study researchers want to learn more about: the percentage of women diagnosed with HMB characteristics of these women like age at diagnosis or medical problems treatment pathways of women with HMB in usual care Regarding treatment pathways, the researchers are especially interested in: the percentage of women who use different therapeutic options over time the percentage of women receiving invasive treatment for HMB after they received treatment as recommended by guidelines versus those not treated as recommended To do this, researchers will collect information from five observational healthcare databases. Data will be from the year 2000 up to 2020. Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are planned in this study. In future, this information shall help to identify women with HMB and to learn what information may predict if invasive treatment will be needed later on.

Maintaining intraoperative normothermia and temperature measurement is a marker of quality of care. We know that intraoperative hypothermia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, infection of the surgical wound, a longer hospital stay, discomfort, hemorrhage and transfusion demand. Goals: To know the incidence of perioperative hypothermia in routine clinical practice in different surgical settings in a national reference university hospital. To establish if hypothermia is a risk factor for developing postoperative complications, focusing mainly on bleeding and infection of the surgical wound, in subjects aged between 18-65 years who come to the La Paz University Hospital for a surgical intervention in the Obstetrics / Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery Services. Hospital-based cohort study. A two-year follow-up of patients between 18 and 65 years will be carried out. Those patients with haemostasis disorders and infections in the preoperative period will be excluded. Using a questionnaire on sociodemographic variables, the baseline conditions of the patients will be evaluated for inclusion in the study. Subsequently, the temperature will be measured at the beginning and at the end of the surgery, as well as during admission to the Post Anesthesia Care Unit, where the temperature normalization time will be noted in the event of hypothermia. In retrospect, those variables corresponding to the late postoperative period will be evaluated and the telephone interview will be conducted to assess the quality of care received. All the data will be reflected in the collection booklet that we present in the annex. Patient demographics, case characteristics, and temperature records were summarized using descriptive statistics. Microsoft Excel (Professional Plus 2010, version 14); it was used for data management and processing, with Stata (version 14; StataCorp LP, College Station, TX) for graphical representations and statistical tests. A multivariate analysis of potential confounding factors will be performed. These results will serve to know the incidence of hypothermia according to the usual practice in a Spanish tertiary hospital and to establish recommendations in the management of intraoperative hypothermia and its prevention.
