Active clinical trials for "Venous Thrombosis"

Assess the relative change in thrombus volume as determined by two assessments (Baseline and Day 14-21) with magnetic resonance venography (MRV) in subjects with deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) treated with either an edoxaban monotherapy regimen or a low molecular weight (LMW) heparin/warfarin regimen.

Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.

The purpose of this study is to compare two different marketed PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) designs. Clotting rates, procedural bleeding and ease of catheter insertion will be compared. It is hypothesized that the non-tapered design has a lower clotting rate and is easier to place than the tapered design. Bleeding rates are expected to be about the same.

This is an open label, prospective, non-randomised, multi-centre first-in-human evaluation of the Vetex Thrombectomy Device for treatment of acute iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

The investigators have recently developed a registry of missed doses of VTE prophylaxis that includes retrospective data on missed doses of VTE prophylaxis. To decrease rates of VTE prophylaxis refusal, the group has developed a patient-centered education bundle that will be delivered as an in-person, 1-on-1 discussion session with a nurse educator. Supporting education materials include a 2-page education sheet and an educational video. The investigators hypothesize that patient refusal of VTE prophylaxis is associated with significant knowledge gaps among patients regarding patients' risk of developing VTE and the benefits of VTE prophylaxis and that delivering an education bundle to patients that refuse VTE prophylaxis will improve compliance with VTE prophylaxis and decrease rates of VTE.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the international pharmacogenetic algorithm is better than the standard initiation dosing and whether the two algorithms are suitable for Chinese elderly patients.

In a French multicenter double blind randomized controlled trial, the main objective is to demonstrate that, after 6 months of oral anticoagulation for a first episode of idiopathic proximal deep vein thrombosis, 18 months of warfarin therapy is associated with a lower cumulative risk of recurrent VTE and major bleeding in comparison with that on 18 months of placebo. The secondary objectives are: (1) to determine the risk of recurrent VTE after 6 months of warfarin therapy and the presence or the absence of residual lung scan perfusion defect and the persistence or not of elevated D-dimer test; and (2), to determine the impact of extended duration of anticoagulation on the risk of VTE after stopping anticoagulant therapy on a follow-up of 2 years.

The investigators aim to compare the complications between centrally and peripherally inserted central venous catheters in neurological intensive care unit patients. The study hypothesis is that peripherally inserted catheters will have more cumulative complications due to venous thrombosis.

To determine whether 3 months' anticoagulation is as good as or better than 6 months' for the treatment of DVT/PE

The purpose of this study is to find out whether rivaroxaban is safe to use in children and how long it stays in the body. There will also be a check for bleeding and worsening of blood clots.
