Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

Aim:This research was designed as a randomized controlled study to examine the effect of the game-based virtual reality learning method on the patient's post-operative admission to the clinic on the learning outcomes of the students. Desing: This study was designed as a randomized controlled study to examine the effect of the game-based virtual reality learning method on the patient's post-operative admission to the clinic on the learning outcomes of the students. Metod: The universe of the research will be nursing students who have taken the Surgical Diseases Nursing Course at Gazi University Faculty of Health Sciences Nursing Department in the 2021-2022 academic year. As a result of the power analysis using the G-power 3.1.9.7 package program; The effect size was calculated as 0.40 (It was seen from the literature studies that the effect size of the change in the knowledge score of the two groups was large effect size), and the total number of 68 samples is sufficient with 90% power, 5% margin of error, 95% confidence level, 20% drop-out Considering the rate of study, it was found sufficient to work with at least 82 people (Experiment: 41, Control: 41). For research data, "descriptive features form", "knowledge test form", "skill evaluation checklist", "student opinions form about game-based virtual reality game application", egameflow scale will be used.

This study will test the hypothesis that azythromycin is efficient and safe in cleansing the upper gastrointestinal tract for endoscopic examination in the case of acute bleeding.

the goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of manual pressure points (femoral and supra-clavicular) for hemorrhage control by military medics using either the traditional blind manual technique or an ultrasound guided technique in healthy human volunteers. The main question to answer is which technique provides better results with regard to cumulative flow cessation during a 180 seconds attempt. Participants will press on each other's supraclavicular and femoral pressure points, twice each, once with an ultrasound probe and once with their hand, while distal flow is measured using ultrasound doppler.

Reduction of intra-operative blood loss

Transoral robotic surgery (TORS )has been shown to offer excellent oncological and functional outcomes for treating cancer at multiple subsites of the head and neck. Post operative haemorrhage (3.1% to 13.1%) is the most common complication of this procedure and can lead to airway compromise. Ligation of individual feeding vessels in the neck can limit risk of severe bleed and is usually done when concomitant neck dissection is carried out with TORS. In salvage TORS, in the absence of any nodal disease of the neck, the neck is explored, nevertheless, for the sole purpose of tying the vessel. Endovascular embolisation is a minimally invasive, safe and effective procedure; known for treating refractory epistaxis and for reducing intra-operative bleeding for benign vascular head and neck tumour. The investigators propose that superselective endovascular embolisation to occlude feeding blood vessels prior to TORS in patients who do not require neck dissection is a feasible, safe and acceptable intervention; and therefore a plausible alternative conventional open neck vessel ligation.

The primary aim of this study is to compare efficacy of "early endoscopy" and "non-endoscopic treatment" for management of acute upper gastrointestinal (UGI) bleeding in patients with recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study will also compare rates of surgery, repeated intervention (endoscopy or TAE), rebleeding and complications between two groups.

This study will evaluate if the timing of oxytocin administration in cesarean deliveries will affect the amount of maternal blood loss. Half of participants will receive oxytocin after delivery of the fetal anterior shoulder and the other half will receive oxytocin after delivery of the placenta. We hypothesize that administering oxytocin after delivery of the shoulder, will result in less overall maternal blood loss.

This study employs a modified continual reassessment method (mCRM) design to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PF-05230907, defined as a target toxicity rate of 15% based on treatment emergent thromboembolic and/or ischemic events (TIEs). The mCRM design utilizes Bayesian methodology to continuously learn the dose-toxicity relationship, which is characterized by a parametric model. Subjects with a diagnosis of ICH (determined by computed tomography) will be enrolled in cohorts of 3. The total length of time planned for study participation is approximately 3 months; 6.0 hours for screening, a single dose administration with a 4-day minimum hospital confinement period and follow-up visits through Day 91. Severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03. All subjects who receive PF-05230907 are evaluable for TIEs. The determination of MTD using mCRM modeling will be based on TIEs which occur through 7 days post-dose (Day 8).

Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is a common cause for attendance to the Emergency Department with a wide range of clinical severity, ranging from insignificant to life-threatening. While there is robust data to support the benefit of upper endoscopy within 24 hours of admission, the implementation of early upper endoscopy while patients are still in the emergency room has not been widely accepted due to lack of added benefit in terms of patient outcome such as mortality and re-bleeding rate. However, the use of upper endoscopy in the emergency room with the purpose of facilitating early discharge of low risk patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding has not been studied.

There is currently limited information regarding the role of blood management in the benign gynecologic population and specifically, in patients who are scheduled to undergo surgery for fibroids and/or abnormal uterine bleeding. A thorough search through PubMed and clinicaltrials.gov did not reveal any studies on this issue. In 2019 at CCF only 2% of gyn patients at Main Campus were referred to blood management, but 12.6% of the main campus gyn population had a Hb of <10.0 g/dL. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the role of preoperative blood management in optimizing surgical outcomes by reducing the co-morbidities associated with postoperative blood transfusion.
