Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

Cattle encephalon glycoside and ignotin Cattle encephalon glycoside and ignotin (CEGI) injection (drug approval H22025046; Jilin Sihuan Pharmaceutical Co. LTD., Jilin, People's Republic of China) is a compound preparation of muscle extract from healthy rabbits and cattle brain gangliosides, which was approved by the Chinese Food and Drug Administration in 2011 and was commonly used as neuroprotectant in the treatment of central and peripheral nerve injuries in China. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CEGI in treatment of Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, we designed this study.

Decompressive craniectomy is frequently used to treat increased intracranial pressure or an intracranial mass effect. Trephined Syndrome describes a neurological deterioration, which is attributed to a large craniectomy. The symptomatology is varied but includes headache, aggravation of a hemisyndrome or cognitive disorders, often has an orthostatic component and improves or disappears with cranioplasty. The incidence of Trephined Syndrome has been reported between 7% and 26%. However, it might be underestimated if the course of cognitive functions before and after cranioplasty were insufficiently documented.

This study will evaluate the impact of repeated normoxic challenges on cerebral oxygenation as a measure of the effect of blood loss on DO2 during surgical procedures.

Upper digestive bleeding. Upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage is a common cause of decompensated cirrhosis and is associated with a high mortality rate among cirrhotic patients. Its leading cause is the rupture of gastro-esophageal varices due to portal hypertension. In cirrhotic patients, the management of acute gastrointestinal haemorrhage is challenging as they often present with coagulation (or haemostasis abnormalities) abnormalities such as hyperfibrinolysis, especially when the cirrhosis is decompensated. Beyond life support measures, therapeutic modalities of upper gastrointestinal bleeding rely on both endoscopic and pharmacological interventions. Tranexamic acid (TA) is an antifibrinolytic that may help control the bleeding in this setting, as it showed an unquestionable benefit in other indications. TA has previously been studied in both upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage from any causes and in liver transplantation of cirrhotic patients. However, there is a lack of data to conclude on its effectiveness (or efficiency) in the early treatment of acute bleeding in cirrhotic patients. Investigators hypothesize that, when given early, TA would be beneficial for cirrhotic patients presenting with acute upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage , by controlling the haemorrhage, avoiding rebleeding episodes and reducing mortality within 5 days after its administration. Moreover, TA could prevent early cirrhosis complications (such as hepatic encephalopathy, sepsis and ascites liquid infection, hepatorenal syndrome), could reduce indications to transjugular portosystemic shunt (TIPS), shorten the length of stay in intensive care unit and the length of hospitalization, and decrease late relapses and one-year mortality.

the study about herbal mouthwash. it is clinical trial .the investigator will compare between chlorhexidine mouthwash and garlic with lime juice mouthwash.and their effect on gingival bleeding and plaque and salivary bacteria.

Patients who experience lung injury are often placed on a ventilator to help them heal; however, if the ventilator volume settings are too high, it can cause additional lung injury. It is proven that using lower ventilator volume settings improves outcomes. In patients with acute brain injury, it is proven that maintaining a normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the arterial blood improves outcomes. Mechanical ventilator settings with higher volumes and higher breathing rates are sometimes required to maintain a normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide. These 2 goals of mechanical ventilation, using lower volumes to prevent additional lung injury but maintaining a normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide, are both important for patients with acute brain injury. The investigators have designed a computerized ventilator protocol in iCentra that matches the current standard of care for mechanical ventilation of patients with acute brain injury by targeting a normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide with the lowest ventilator volume required. This is a quality improvement study with the purpose of observing and measuring the effects of implementation of a standard of care mechanical ventilation protocol for patients with acute brain injury in the iCentra electronic medical record system at Intermountain Medical Center. We hypothesize that implementation of a standardized neuro lung protective ventilation protocol will be feasible, will achieve a target normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide, will decrease tidal volumes toward the target 6 mL/kg predicted body weight, and will improve outcomes.

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending dose of Y-2 sublingual tablets in healthy male and female adult subjects. The secondary objective is to characterize the single-dose pharmacokinetics of Y-2 sublingual tablets in healthy male and female adult subjects.

The LOVIT study is a European prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm feasibility trial designed to determine the safety and angiographic effectiveness through 30 days post treatment with Lumenate Intraluminal Device in the treatment of symptomatic vasospasm.

Early endoscopy is an integral part of the management plan for patients presenting with clinical signs of severe or ongoing UGIB. An accurate endoscopic diagnosis and successful endoscopic hemostasis is highly dependent on adequate visualization of the entire gastric mucosa. Metoclopramide has previously been investigated as a prokinetic agent to aid gastric emptying prior to endoscopy, but its widespread adoption is limited by a lack of high quality clinical evidence as well as concerns regarding side effects. Erythromycin is currently the only prokinetic agent recommended by the American and the European guidelines for use in selected patients in order to reduce the need for second endoscopy. Its clinical application, however, is limited by risk of arrhythmia, significant drug interactions, and frequent drug shortages. Azithromycin is structurally related to erythromycin, but is devoid of most adverse side effects associated with erythromycin use. Early evidence suggests that azithromycin may be an effective alternative to erythromycin in the treatment of gastroparesis. The current study, an interventional, randomized, triple-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial, is primarily aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of azithromycin as a prokinetic agent in the management of UGIB. It is also aimed to further evaluate the role of metoclopramide as a prokinetic agent in this setting. Outcome measures to be collected in this study include the need for secondary endoscopy, overall mortality, transfusion requirement, length of stay, requirement for surgery, and incidence of adverse side effects. Results from this study would help identify a safe, effective, and readily available prokinetic agent to be used prior to endoscopy.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the endometrial ablation device Librata in reducing menstrual blood loss at 12 months post-treatment when used in pre-menopausal women with menorrhagia due to benign causes for whom childbearing is complete.
