Active clinical trials for "Blood Coagulation Disorders"

The objective is to determine the initial reference range intervals for the parameters reported by the Quantra System with the QStat Cartridge.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between coagulopathy during the perioperative period (before the operation and on the first day after the operation) and the long-term survival of traumatic brain injury patients undergoing surgery, as well as to explore the predisposing risk factors that may cause perioperative coagulopathy.

Objective of this study was to determine the relationship between CAC and septic condition in COVID-19 critically ill patients. Data including age, sex, comorbidities, quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score, vasopressors requirement, laboratory findings: platelets, neutrophils, lymphocytes, procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, D-dimer, sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) score were recorded on the day of admission and on the day of starting of invasive mechanical ventilation. Primary outcome was to establish CAC with sepsis; secondary outcome measure was incidence of CAC in sepsis and septic shock in COVID-19 critically ill patients.

The purpose of the study is to give the proof of concept of the Fibrin structure assay on STA-R® prototype. It aims to identify the parameters which discriminate the pathologic from the normal population. Secondary objectives are to determine the precision of the assay, to record the Fibrin activity, comparatively with thromboelastography on TEG®, in a coagulation activation assay and in a coagulation-lysis assay.

This cohort study describes the epidemiology of trauma patients and their management in a French academic trauma center. It also aims to determine what recommendations from the European trauma guidelines is applied in routine.

Observational study aimed at evaluating the clinical impact of a standardised diagnostic procedure for the investigation of patients with suspected mild bleeding disorder (MBD).

The purpose of the study is to identify the inflammatory and coagulation pathways and mechanisms that are activated immediately following burn injury, and how they affect outcomes in terms of organ failure and death. This study also addresses the limitation of current tests (PT, PTT, and platelet counts) employed to identify coagulation disturbances in severely injured patients both in a comprehensive and rapid manner.

This study is conducted in Africa and Asia. The aim of this study is to evaluate in the participating countries the orthopaedic status and the degree of arthropathy of severe haemophilia patients in general.

The purpose of this study is to measure prothrombin time (PT) expressed in International Normalised Ratio (INR) units in persons receiving coumadin (warfarin) treatment on an experimental device and a commercially available device. This study will involve taking a finger-puncture and testing onto a strip and meter system for the experimental and commercially available devices.

Coagulation dysfunction is frequent in septic patients and it is associated with an increase risk of mortality. During sepsis platelets number usually decreases and their function is reduced and this mechanism is sustained by an inflammatory induced coagulopathy. Some recent studies evaluated the possibility to use viscoelastic whole blood tests of the haemostasis, such as thromboelastography (TEG), which analyze all blood components and their interactions during clot formation and dissolution and might be useful for assessing bleeding risk in septic patients. Maximun amplitude (MA) is one of the variables obtained from TEG analysis and it expresses the strength of the clot and the efficacy of platelet function. A low level of MA describes a lower strength of the clot determined by a lower number or a reduced function of platelet. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether a lower level of MA and a pattern of hypocoagulability might be associated with an increased risk of bleeding and need of transfusion in patients with sepsis. We want to conduct a prospective multicenter observational study, enrolling 100 consecutive adults patients with sepsis. We will exclude patients under 18 years old of age, chronic use of oral anticoagulant and anti platelet treatment, hematologic malignancy, congenital bleeding disorders, oral contraceptives, lack of consent. Primary end point To evaluate whether a lower level of MA might be associated with an increased risk of bleeding. Secondary end points: to evaluate whether a different level of MA correlates with the biomarker of the severity of sepsis such as presepsin, with the biomarker of the severity of infection and whether a pattern of hypocoagulability might be associated with a risk of mortality. All enrolled patients will undergo a blood sample at admission (T0), after 72 hours (T1) and after 7 days (T2) and all the following parameters will be measured: Platelet count, APTT, PT, INR, fibrinogen, procalcitonin and presepsin . Additionally, all viscoelastic parameters (reaction time (R), clot formation speed (K), angle (alpha) and maximum amplitude (MA)) will be performed at bedside, at T0, T1, T2: Outcome measurements: Intensive Care Unit Length of Stay and mortality at 28 days and at 90 days.
