Clinical Investigation of a Novel Approach for the Prevention of Deep Venous Thrombosis After Total...
Deep Venous ThrombosisVenous thromboembolism, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), has long been recognized as the most frequent complication within 7 to 14 days after orthopedic surgery, especially total joint arthroplasty. Without prophylactic therapy, the incidence of DVT and pulmonary embolism reaches up to 60% following orthopedic surgery. The possible damage to the vessel wall during the operation, the venous stasis caused by long-term bed rest, and the hypercoagulability of the blood after the surgery are the 3 main reasons for the formation of DVT. In most cases, the thrombi resolve spontaneously; however, some of them (about 1~4%) may develop into symptomatic and even fatal DVT. Ankle pumping exercise is currently suggested for the patients with joint placement surgery to prevent the formation of lower-extremity DVT after orthopedic surgery. However, the compliance of the exercise at home is unclear. In order to remind the patients to the active ankle exercise and record the executive rate, a device was developed to help the patient to exercise in the hospital and at home. The device will remind the patient to exercise at specific time point by verbal and vibrations, and detect the range of motion during the exercise for further analysis. The aim of this study is to access the effect of a non-invasive novel device in preventing the formation of lower limb DVT. Maximum venous outflow, maximum venous capacity, and blood rheology were measured and the incidence of DVT was recorded for the data analysis.
Prevention of Arteriovenous Thrombotic Events in Critically-Ill COVID-19 Patients Trial
COVID-19Venous Thromboembolism1 moreThis is a multicenter, open-label, 2x2 factorial, randomized-controlled trial in critically-ill patients with novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) evaluating the efficacy and safety of full-dose vs. standard prophylactic dose anticoagulation and of antiplatelet vs. no antiplatelet therapy for prevention of venous and arterial thrombotic events.
Continuous Heparin Infusion to Prevent Catheter-related Thrombosis
Cardiac SurgeryCentral Venous Catheter Thrombosis1 moreCatheter-related thrombosis could impair blood flow in the vein, block the central venous catheter, induce catheter-related infection or venous thromboembolism in the deep veins or pulmonary vessels, which furthermore progress into the post-thrombotic syndrome. Researches using echogenic mass as the primary outcome could miss those premature thrombi which might not be seen on traditional ultrasonography but may be detected by Duplex and Doppler ultrasound with vessel compression. Moreover, studies indicated that some thrombus developed after the catheter removal. Removal of the catheter is not the endpoint of thrombus detection. This study is designed to determine the preventive effects of continuous heparin infusion on real-world central venous catheter-related thrombosis in infants after cardiac surgery.
Point of Care Ultrasound For The Diagnosis Of Deep Venous Thrombosis And Its Effect On Length Of...
Deep Venous ThrombosesDeep Venous Thrombosis of Left Leg2 moreThis is a Clinical Trial on the use of Point Of Care Ultrasound for the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and its effect on length of hospital stay. 25 participants with suspicion of DVT according to Wells Criteria were randomized to one of two groups: Point of Care Ultrasound and Echo Doppler Ultrasound (POCUS + EDUS), and the control group was submitted only to the Echo Doppler Ultrasound (EDUS). The primary outcome was hospital stay.
Thrombotic Effects of Yellowstripe Scad
ThrombosisThe study aimed to determine the thrombotic effects of YSS compared with salmon among healthy overweight subjects. It hypothesized that YSS may result significant, favorable thrombotic effects and the effects may be similar with salmon.

Thromboprophylaxis in Pregnant Women in Hospital: A Prospective Clinical Trial
Thrombophilia Associated With PregnancyPerioperative/Postoperative Complications4 moreHospitalization in pregnancy and childbirth greatly increases the thromboembolic risk of these patients. The application of a protocol for assessing the risk of VTE reduces mortality and morbidity of these phenomena.
