Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)Pulmonary Embolism (PE)

Following the findings of the clinical trials in drug development, this global non-interventional cohort field study will investigate rivaroxaban under clinical practice conditions in comparison with current standard of care for patients with acute venous thoromboembolism (VTE). The main goal is to analyze long-term safety in the use of rivaroxaban in the treatment of acute VTE in routine clinical practice.

Venous Thromboembolism and Haemostatic Disturbances in Patients With Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer...

ThrombosisDeep Venous Thrombosis5 more

Cancer is a well known risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE) such as deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Today we know that patients with adenocarcinomas of the gastro intestinal tract (GI-tract) often is in a hypercoagulable state. In our observational study we collect patients admitted to department with a tentative diagnosis of upper GI cancer including pancreas cancer and offer them flow doppler ultrasounds of both legs for diagnosis of DVT in the entire treatment time. The routine CT-scan of the chest is modified to diagnose PE. This will be compared with blood samples analysed for coagulation markers including D-dimer - a fibrinogen degradation product.

Duration and Adverse Events of Non-cuffed Catheter in Patients With Hemodialysis

Renal Failure Chronic Requiring HemodialysisCentral Venous Catheterization5 more

The duration and adverse events of non-cuffed catheter in patients with hemodialysis will be investigated by multicenter prospective cohort. Totally, 1,400 patients with chronic renal failure requiring hemodialysis will be enrolled. 900 patients will be given right internal jugular catheterization, and the other 500 patients unsuitable for right internal jugular catheterization will receive femoral catheterizations. Every patient will be followed-up for six months. During following-up period, the duration time and adverse events of non-cuffed catheter will be recorded in details, including inadequate hemodialysis blood flow, venous stenosis, venous thrombosis, infection, catheter thrombosis and so on. The central vein will be evaluated by CT Angiography to identify its stenosis at last visit after 6 months. This multicentre trial will provide evidence to develop guideline for duration time of using non-cuffed catheter.

Improving Lower Limb Blood Flow in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Deep Vein Thrombosis

The THRIVE-1 study will examine novel methods for enhancing blood flow in the lower limb using electrical stimulation. Increases in lower limb blood flow improve venous return and thereby reduce venous stasis. Since stasis is one of the compounding factors in the development of deep vein thrombosis, the risk of developing thrombosis should theoretically be proportionally reduced. This technique may prove to be a useful tool in preventing and reducing the incidence of deep vein thrombosis in both medical and surgical patients together with passengers undertaking significant duration travel (as travel - related deep vein thrombosis is not exclusively related to flying).

Based on limited published epidemiological data, up to an alarming 1 in 50 surgical inpatients die within 30 postoperative days. Based on our own data from the B-Unaware (NCT00281489) and BAG-RECALL (NCT00682825) clinical trials, 30-day postoperative mortality among high-risk surgical patients is comparable to this at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, and 1-year mortality among high-risk surgical patients may be as high as 10%. Short- and intermediate-term postoperative mortality is therefore a pressing public health concern. Similarly, postoperative major morbidity - including delirium, stroke, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, blood clots, renal dysfunction, wound infection, pneumonia, respiratory failure, loss of functionality, and chronic pain - occurs commonly and affects a substantial proportion of surgical patients, critically ill patients and patients undergoing procedures for chronic pain. Many factors associate strongly and independently with postoperative mortality and major morbidity: patient age, functional status, comorbid medical conditions, and duration and invasiveness of surgery, among others. It is a strategic priority to identify pre- and intraoperative risk factors that are subject to modification.

Use of Bedside Ultrasound in Emergency Department Patients With Concern for Pulmonary Embolism to...

Pulmonary EmbolismDeep Vein Thrombosis Leg1 more

At most institutions, the average patient with clinical concern for PE(pulmonary embolism) will have a CT angiogram(CTA) with contrast of the lungs performed to evaluate for a clot. However, CTA has risks including contrast- induced allergic reactions and nephropathy, as well as radiation which has been linked to development of cancer later in life. There is literature that has looked at using lower extremity doppler ultrasound first to evaluate for a DVT (deep venous thrombosis) in patients where there is concern for a PE. There is also literature showing that emergency medicine physicians can perform adequate lower extremity compression ultrasounds (LCUS), at the bedside with results similar to that of the ultrasound tech. The goal of this project is to fuse both principles by having emergency medicine physicians perform LCUS at the bedside, to help reduce CTA utilization in the evaluation of PE.

This study aimed (1) revaluating the efficacy of the Wells' clinical prediction score for an inpatient population; and the weight of the presence of thromboprophylaxis treatment on the score, and (2) evaluating the correlation of a risk stratification established between a physician specialised in thrombosis and any other doctor.

Pharmacogenetic Dosage Algorithm for Acenocoumarol

Atrial FibrillationVenous Thromboses1 more

The use of coumarins has been a challenge for doctors because of its narrow therapeutic range and they show great inter and intra-individual variability in the dose necessary to achieve an international normalized ratio (INR) within the therapeutic range. Among the factors influencing the interindividual variability in the dose required include age, weight, Vitamin K in the diet, comorbidity as well as drug interactions and in recent years has also seen the importance of pharmacogenetic factors.
