Active clinical trials for "Thromboembolism"

Oral anticoagulants have a prominent place in the strategy of prevention and treatment of thromboembolic diseases, especially in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, a study conducted by the National Fund for Health Insurance (Caisse primaire d'Assurance maladie, CPAM) in 2017 among nearly 35,000 patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation showed that one in five patients stopped their oral anticoagulant without medical advice for at least 60 days during the first year of treatment. In our establishment, patients hospitalized in the Cardiology departments and treated with oral anticoagulants benefit from pharmaceutical interviews on their treatment before they return at home. This activity, which exists since November 2014, is based on a team consisting on a pharmacy student, supervised by a pharmacist trained in therapeutic education. In order to secure the management of patients treated by oral anticoagulants and to answer the requirements of Certification, the investigators wish to extend the pharmaceutical interviews to all of hospital's healthcare services. However, the large number of patients concerned, the shorter hospital stays and the difficulties to organize collective sessions in front of the diversity of treatments and diseases are parameters to be taken into account in the development of this activity. The provision of a targeting tool for patients with high risk of thromboembolism and / or hemorrhage is a prerequisite for organizing this institutional approach to support patients on anticoagulants. In this context, the investigators want to establish a prioritization score to identify patients on oral anticoagulants with a higher drug risk.

The purpose of this study is to assess outpatient treatment patterns following hospitalization for venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is a condition that occurs when blood clot forms in the vein. This is a retrospective study (assessments on events that have already occurred) of healthcare claims from databases. The study sponsors will assess healthcare claim records of patients treated with either apixaban or warfarin. Assessment includes treatment persistence, switch, and stopping therapy, along with recurrent VTE and bleeding.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the practice patterns of rivaroxaban usage invenous-thromboembolism (VTE) and non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in cancer patients. The secondary objectives are to evaluate outcomes such as recurrent VTE, stroke and bleeding for cancer patients on rivaroxaban.

Lybrel® is an oral contraceptive that delivers low doses of levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol (90 μg/20 μg). Lybrel is taken on a continuous basis without a placebo or pill-free interval to inhibit menstrual cycle bleeding by delivering a steady level of the 2 hormones for as long as the drug is used. Lybrel was marketed in the US in July of 2007. The objective of this database case-control study is to estimate the risk of idiopathic VTE (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) in current users of Lybrel (ethinyl estradiol 20ug/levonorgestrel 90ug) compared to current users of other oral contraceptives containing 20μg of ethinyl estradiol.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the ability of STA® Liatest® D-Di combined with a clinical pretest probability (PTP) to safely exclude pulmonary embolism (PE) or Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) in a 3 month follow-up.

The purpose of this prospective multicenter cohort study is to examine long-term medical outcomes, quality of life, and medical resource utilization in elderly patients (>= 65 years) with acute venous thromboembolism (i.e., acute pulmonary embolism and/or deep vein thrombosis)

The purpose of this study is to describe the incidence of thromboembolic events in relation to pregnancy and when in pregnancy and the puerperal period.

The venous thromboembolism is one of the first causes of maternal mortality. Until 2003, only a few recommendations were available on the optimal use of antithrombotic therapy as a preventive measure against thromboembolism in pregnant women. In this study, we propose : To gather the experts who took part in the French consensus conference and the local experts to create a score in accordance with the national and international consensus and to give some precise therapeutic strategies. To evaluate the discriminant, feasible and useful character of this new score by a prospective multicentric study including 2000 pregnant women with a risk of thromboembolism or placental vascular pathology who will benefit from therapeutic strategies defined by the new score. .

Venous thromboembolic (VTE) disease is the first cause of maternal mortality in the world. Some other pregnancy pathologies called Placental Vascular Pathologies (PVP) are linked to VTE by biological thrombophilia and are the principal cause of perinatal mortality. the identification of predictive factors of risk of occurrence or recurrence of two pathologies could enable us to propose an appropriate monitoring of patients at risk.

More than 5 years ago the DVT FREE Registry was conceived. Its database consists of 5,451 ultrasound-confirmed DVT patients from 183 institutions. This database is rich in information of critical importance to health care providers. The information contained within the database will be revisited to provide more detailed analyses which will be used for risk factor assessment and for decision-making regarding the implementation of VTE Prophylaxis.
