Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

Odiparcil is being studied to determine if it can prevent blood clots from forming after a total knee replacement and also to prove that odiparcil is safe.

In previous attemps to answer the question of risk-benefit of postpartum thromboprophylaxis, researchers were faced with low recruitement rates. The goal of this pilot feasibility randomized controlled trial of postpartum pharmacological thromboprophylaxis is to examine the feasibility (recruitement rate) and participation rate at the Geneva University Hospitals

The aim of the study is to evaluate if the plasma activity of the tissue factor at the time of the diagnosis of a lung cancer, before any treatment, or after the treatment of induction (surgery or two first cures of chemotherapy), can be a predictive factor of venous thromboembolism disease in the year which follows the diagnosis, independently of the other parameters.

The investigators aim to investigate whether a computer-based alert system in the electronic patient chart and order entry system using the Geneva Risk Score as clinical decision support tool to estimate the risk of venous thromboembolism improves the rate of appropriate thromboprophylaxis among hospitalized medical patients.

This study is phase 3 study for prevention of VTE in patients with abdominal surgery.

Rivaroxaban or placebo for extended antithrombotic prophylaxis after laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer: a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study.

To evaluate: the incidence of venous thromboembolic event (VTE) the incidence of hemorrhagic complications, In a population of patients with myeloma who are treated with IMiDs and require thromboprophylaxis for 6 months, using an oral anti-Xa anticoagulant, Apixaban, in a preventive scheme, 2.5 mg x2/day

The purpose of this study is to determine whether systematically performing computed tomography (CT) venography (i.e a CT acquisition of the pelvis and of the lower limbs, during the venous phase of opacification) in addition to thoracic CT angiography in women with suspected postpartum pulmonary embolism (PE) results in a gain in venous thromboembolism detection rate.

RE-COVERY is a large, multi-national, multi-center observational study based on new data collection. The study will enroll and characterize patients within 30 days of being diagnosed with an acute DVT and/or PE. The study has two main objectives. Objective 1 will characterize the DVT / PE patient population. All patients with a DVT and/or PE will be enrolled for cross-sectional characterization of the VTE patient population. Objective 2 will compare the safety and effectiveness of dabigatran etexilate regimens for treatment of VTE in comparison to VKA regimens. Patients treated with dabigatran etexilate or VKA will be followed up for the occurrence of outcome events for up to one year.

The objective of this investigation is to assess safety and effectiveness of Xarelto under practice routine use in VTE secondary prevention after acute DVT, focusing on hemorrhagic-related AEs, recurrent venous thromboembolism (PE/DVT), all-cause mortality. This study is a company sponsored, one- arm prospective cohort study with patients to whom Rivaroxaban treatment for VTE (PE/DVT) has been chosen. The study includes a standard observation period (1 year) and an extension survey period (2 years, at the longest).
