The Treatment of Acute Pulmonary Thromboembolism (PE) of GSK576428 (Fondaparinux Sodium) in Japanese...

EmbolismPulmonary

The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy (as measured by the rate of recurrent symptomatic Venous Thromboembolism [VTE] (i.e., Pulmonary thromboembolism [PE] and Deep Vein Thrombosis [DVT])) and safety of GSK576428 as the initial treatment in subjects with acute PE in an open-label design.

Phase I Trial of Inhaled Nitric Oxide to Treat Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary Embolism

This study will test the hypothesis that patients with acute PE and dyspnea can safely inhale NO. The secondary hypothesis is that patients who are blinded to the inhaled NO concentration will sustain subjective improvement in their perception of dyspnea based upon their reported Borg dyspnea score, during inhalation of NO. Specific aims Test if patients with acute PE and shortness of breath of severity ≥ 5 on a 0-10 scale called the Borg score can have inhaled nitric oxide administered via nasal cannula or face mask in a titration protocol that increases concentration by 5 ppm in 5 min steps to a maximum of 25 ppm. We will measure the number of patients who meet an absolute safety endpoint during titration. An absolute safety endpoint requires execution of a rapid weaning protocol (2 ppm decrease per minute to 0 ppm). Absolute safety endpoints: Two consecutive SBP measurements more than one min apart with both readings < 80 mm Hg;SaO 2 <80% for more than 15 seconds; Patient deterioration as defined by: Clinical decision for need of inotropic or pressor support for any reason, seizure, new altered mental status, focal neurological signs suggestive of cerebral ischemia, evidence of myocardial ischemia, protracted vomiting. Test if the patient-reported Borg score decreases with administration of NO. Patients will not be told any details about the timing of the titration and will not be made aware of their iNO concentration when the Borg score is assessed.

Angiojet Rheolytic Thrombectomy in Case of Massive Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary Embolism

This pilot study is mainly aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the percutaneous Angiojet Rheolytic Thrombectomy (ART) in patients presenting a MPE. Secondarily the effectiveness of this treatment modality will also be estimated.

Study to Find Out the Appropriate Initial Dose of the Anticoagulant Drug Phenprocoumon

Pulmonary EmbolismAtrial Fibrillation2 more

Oral anticoagulation is often initiated in hospitalized patients. Although the therapeutic range of phenprocoumon is narrow, the individual drug demands unfortunately vary greatly between persons. Our group recently developed two dosing algorithms for the initiation of anticoagulation based on clinical predictors such as age, gender, body weight and laboratory values. The aim of the proposed study is to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of these two algorithms in medical and orthopedic inpatients, as well as in a group of outpatients and possibly in a geriatric collective.

Clinical Study Assessing Idrabiotaparinux Sodium Injections Once-weekly in Pulmonary Embolism Therapeutic...

EmbolismThrombosis

Objectives are to evaluate whether idrabiotaparinux sodium (SSR126517E) is as least as effective as a standard warfarin treatment to prevent recurrence of venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients with symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) with or without symptomatic deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and to assess its safety (bleedings) versus warfarin.

Rivaroxaban Plus Aspirin to Manage Recurrent Venous Thromboembolic Events

Venous ThromboembolismAnticoagulant-induced Bleeding2 more

Venous thromboembolism affects around 10 million people per year worldwide, however, despite its high incidence, there is no systematic review or randomized trial focused on the treatment of patients with recurrent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or or pulmonary embolism (PE) during anticoagulant treatment. The objective was to compare the use of Rivaroxaban plus Aspirin versus Acenocoumarol in patients with recurrent venous thromboembolism treated with rivaroxaban.

Optimum Duration of Acoustic Pulse Thrombolysis Procedure in Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary Embolism and Thrombosis

The objective is to determine the optimum dose of thrombolytic and duration of the ultrasound procedure (together defined as the APT Procedure) as a treatment for acute submassive pulmonary embolism (PE). Symptomatic submassive PE are participants with acute (less than or equal to [≤]14 days) PE with normal systemic arterial blood pressure (greater than [>] 90 mmHg) and evidence of RV dysfunction (right ventricular to left ventricular diameter ratio, that is; RV/LV ratio greater than or equal to [≥] 0.9). Participants with submassive PE will be randomized to one of four APT treatment groups: ultrasound of 2 and 6 hours (hrs) with r-tPA 2 milligrams (mg)/hr/catheter and ultrasound 4 and 6 hours with r-tPA, 1 mg/hr/catheter. On 08 June 2016, randomization into treatment group 4 (APT/6 hours-r-tPA/2 mg/hr/catheter) was closed following a reported intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and death in a study participant in this arm.

Pulmonary Embolism as a Cause of COPD Exacerbations

Pulmonary EmbolismChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The primary objective is to demonstrate the clinical benefits of an active strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of PE compared to usual care in patients with unexplained exacerbations of COPD who require hospital admission. The secondary objective is to assess the safety of an active strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of PE compared to usual care in patients with unexplained exacerbations of COPD who require hospital admission.
