Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Embolism"

REMMITE, a retrospective and prospective registry with one-year follow-up, will provide valuable insights into the clinical diagnosis, management, treatment trends as well as related outcomes of three cohorts: DVT, DVT-PE, PE patients throughout many regions of Mexico and through different health care systems.

The PREVENTER Trial aims to compare the use of perioperative pharmacologic prophylaxis (subcutaneous heparin) with intermittent pneumatic compression devices (IPCs) to the use of IPCs alone for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after radical prostatectomy (RP).

The purpose of this study is to determine if the Crux Vena Cava Filter System is safe and effective in preventing pulmonary embolism.

Heparin is the reference therapy for most patients with pulmonary embolism. Some patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism defined by normal blood pressure and dysfunction of the right ventricle have a higher mortality risk. It has been suggested that thrombolytic treatment, a drug that dissolves blood clots more rapidly, may reduce the mortality in those patients. The studies reported to date were unable to confirm or refute this hypothesis because the number of patients included in those studies is too low. The aim of the study is to compare thrombolytic treatment with heparin (which is the reference therapy for pulmonary embolism) in a large group of patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism.

Comparative trials of urokinase (UK) for 12 hours（UK-12h）or 24 hours (UK-24h) have produced similar results in acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) thrombolysis. It is unclear whether the infusion time can be reduced further. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of weight adjusted dosage of UK-2h (20 000 IU/Kg) regime with the Uk-12h regime in selected patients with PTE in Chinese population.

To determine whether fondaparinux as monotherapy without warfarin is effective and safe for long-term (90 days) treatment of DVT and/or PE, thus gaining new long-term experience and data using fondaparinux.

To investigate PK and coagulating and fibrinolytic parameter profiles (PD) at the approved dose (13,750 - 27,500 IU/kg) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism accompanying hemodynamic instability.

The clinical study will collect data to verify the safety and performance of the Cook Celect Filter in the prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with a temporary or permanent high risk of thromboembolism.

The study will compare standard catheter directed thrombolysis to ultrasound accelerated thrombolysis for the treatment of acute submassive pulmonary embolism (PE). The study population will include patients eligible for catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) for submassive PE. Subjects will be randomized to, either, standard catheter-directed thrombolysis or ultrasound-accelerated thrombolysis (USAT).
