Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

Gastrointestinal bleeding represents a serious clinical problem and a common cause of hospitalisation with a mortality rate of 6-10% for upper Gastrointestinal bleeding and of 4% for lower Gastrointestinal bleeding requires a multidisciplinary approach involving gastroenterologists, endoscopists, surgeons and radiologists. Gastrointestinal bleeding is self-limited in 80% of cases requiring only supportive measures. However, the persistence of bleeding represents a diagnostic challenge to locate the site of bleeding especially in severe bleeding and to determine, if possible its cause. This will allow to select the most appropriate therapeutic approach in order to reduce the morbidity and mortality, the length of hospitalisation and the transfusion requirements. Current diagnostic algorithms vary widely from institution to institution and from clinician to clinician. Imaging modalities remain the mainstay of the diagnostic approach. They include endoscopy, video capsule, radionuclide imaging, catheter angiography and multidetector computed tomography imaging. In recent years, Multidetector computed tomography has emerged as a promising technology to evaluate Gastrointestinal bleeding. The modality's ease of use and rapid results favour its use in any emergent situation. In addition, today's high-speed, narrow collimation multi-detector technology allows a large coverage area with minimal motion artifacts, with the ability to capture both arterial and venous phase with ease. Multidetector computed tomography is being increasingly used as this is a widely available, non-invasive and fast diagnostic technique that allows for visualisation of the entire intestinal tract and its lesions, the identification of vascularity and possible vascular abnormalities.

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal deaths. Its prognosis is directly influenced by the early diagnosis and treatment of the associated coagulopathy. In this context, fibrinogen concentration is the best predictor of a severe PPH. The medical interest of thromboelastography/elastometry to early detect and guide the rapid correction of coagulopathy in PPH is regularly discussed. The principal aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of a new hemostasis point of care device (thromboelastography - TEG ®6S) for the diagnosis of coagulopathy during PPH. A secondary aim will be to determine the normal values of TEG6S at the end of a normal pregnancy.

The aim of this cross-sectional study is to evaluate the hidden blood loss in patients who underwent open radical hysterectomy and identity its risk factors.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the renal outcome of patients undergoing elective C/S where oxytocin or carbetocin is used for postpartum hemorrhage prophylaxis.

The aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate abnormal uterine bleeding in postmenopausal women using 3D(dimensional) ultrasound assessment of endometrial volume .Doppler assessment of endometrium and hysteroscopy and to correlate this finding with pathological finding of endometrial biopsy

Cross sectional case-control study investigating the difference of volatile organic compound in the exhaled breath of the patients with GI bleeding and normal population.

This study aims to explore the sensitivity of an innovative marker, HE4, in the diagnosis approach of endometrial cancer in case of postmenopausal bleedings.

In this protocol, the investigators present methods and preliminary results from the PLATFORM-CVD Study, an EHR-based multicenter cohort. This study will focus on assessing the distribution of major cerebrovascular diseases, determining the risk factors associated with disease incidence and worse in-hospital outcomes, as well as describing the quality of care. Data from this cohort will be used to develop suitable prediction models for cerebrovascular diseases using real-world data and to understand how outcomes for cerebrovascular diseases would change with quality improvement interventions.

The purpose of this study is to determine the benefit of stereotaxic aspiration for patients with primary brainstem hemorrhage with the guidance of 'Zhe-er Classification'

Intracranial hemorrhage is is a rare, but critical incident in patients with acute lung failure undergoing ECMO therapy. Predictors of intracranial hemorrhage are yet to be defined to identify patients at (high) risk. This retrospective analysis investigates the predictive value and validity of parameters and specific risk factors of critically ill ARDS patients treated with ECMO.
