Active clinical trials for "Thrombosis"

The purpose of the study is to give the proof of concept of the Fibrin structure assay on STA-R® prototype. It aims to identify the parameters which discriminate the pathologic from the normal population. Secondary objectives are to determine the precision of the assay, to record the Fibrin activity, comparatively with thromboelastography on TEG®, in a coagulation activation assay and in a coagulation-lysis assay.

Most important peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and Midline complications are thrombosis and catheter related blood stream infections. No large prospective observational study are present in literature about these topics. The aim of this multicenter prospective observational study is to analyze all the complications due to PICC and Midline insertion.

The purpose of this study is to better understand what treatment methods result in the best outcomes for patients who have heart attacks due to blood clots forming within stents.

The purpose of the Universal Registry is to assess the proportion and reasons for which subjects with angiographically significant ULMCA disease requiring revascularization during the time course of this study are not randomized; to compare the baseline characteristics of subjects; and to assess the variability in randomization eligibility and treatment patterns.

The primary objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of PE among consecutive ICU patients receiving MV who required thoracic computed tomography (CT) with contrast agent injection, regardless of whether PE was suspected clinically. The secondary objectives were to assess the association between PE and DVT, to identify risk factors for VTE, and to determine the outcome of VTE.

This study will be a randomised controlled trial examining whether a new type of needle free access device(TEGO) is associated with less episodes of infection of dialysis lines, when compared to the current gold standard. The investigators hypothesise that there will be less handling of the dialysis line by nursing staff and thus this will lead to lower rates of infection. The investigators will also assess whether these access devices lead to alterations in catheter blood flow rates when compared to the current gold standard.

The goal of this research study is to develop better dosing of anticoagulation medication in both Caucasian and African Americans through analysis of various genetic factors.

This is a multi-center study designed to evaluate the accuracy and precision of the INRatio® Prothrombin Time (PT) Monitoring System, utilizing the INRatio test strip newly designed for low sample volume and heparin insensitivity, when used by trained medical professionals for the quantitative determination of PT and International Normalized Ratio (INR) in fingerstick and venous whole blood from subjects on oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT). These results will be compared to those PT/INR results obtained on plasma from the same subjects as analyzed at a central laboratory with the Sysmex CA-560 System.

Many drug interactions with Warfarin are well documented in the literature, including interactions with a variety of antibiotics. However,in mamy cases it is difficult to predict when the interaction remains theoretical and when it becomes clinically significant and will be reflected in the individual patient. This study's aim is to identify and characterize related conditions (including comorbidities, laboratory test results and other parameters related to the patient)that might be predictors for drug interactions turning from theoretical to clinically significant.

To establish the overall agreement of the MassPLEX Factor II and Factor V Leiden Genotyping Test with bi-directional DNA sequencing for Factor II and Factor V Leiden.
