Active clinical trials for "Venous Thromboembolism"

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of Xarelto in the prophylaxis of VTE in Indian patients undergoing elective TKR/THR

Aim of our study is to find frequency and risk factors for venous thromboembolism development in patients who underwent surgery for incisional ventral hernia. There were 240 patients enrolled in our retrospective observational cohort study. Included patients were operated for incisional hernia in Saveljev University Surgery Clinic from January 2018 to December 2019. Compression duplex ultrasound of lower legs veins was performed in 2-4 days after surgery for all participants. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of the venous thromboembolism event, including pulmonary embolism.

This study aims to collect patient reported outcomes and assess treatment satisfaction in active cancer patients treated with rivaroxaban for VTE (venous thromboembolism).

Patients with cancer are at a significantly increased risk of experiencing a venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE is defined by a blood clot in the leg or lower extremity (deep vein thrombosis) or a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism) and is a leading cause of condition of being diseased and death among cancer patients. The goal of the study is to gather information how often venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurs in prostate cancer patients in Sweden and how this condition is treated with blood thinners.

In France, venous thromboembolic (VTE) disease is usually managed by vascular medicine physicians (VMP). The national OPTIMEV study, conducted more than 12 years ago among VMP practicing in hospital and in the community described the management of VTE in routine clinical practice. Since then a large number of practice changing studies have been published. This includes trials that have validated the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC), the new standard of care of VTE, as per new national and international guidelines. Management of VTE in 2019 appears to be significantly different from the one that prevailed more than 10 years ago when the last national survey was conducted. It is therefore important to have an update on the routine clinical practice management of VTE by VMP. In this perspective the investigators aim to conduct a national survey among VMP practicing in France

Pelvic fracture are very often treated by surgery ; however there are a high level of thrombotic risk during the surgery (venous thrombo embolic events represent about 10% to 50%. The aim of our study is to report the number of these events and identify the risk factor associated to these events regarding Greenfield Risk Assessment Profile .

The purpose of this study is to determine how frequently children undergoing elective neurosurgical procedures develop blood clots in the deep veins of the legs while hospitalized. The information gained from this study will help us determine when children children need to receive therapy to help prevent this type of blood clot from forming.

The main objective of this study is to evaluate, for 15 healthy volunteers and for 15 patients with a history of venous thromboembolism (VTE), the monthly variation (over 6 months) of plasma nucleosome and free DNA concentrations.

Venous thromboembolism(VTE) is the third most common cardiovascular complication among hospitalized patients, and can even cause death. VTE often occurs in intensive care patients and there had been many efforts to prevent such complication. The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) had published evidence-based clinical practice guideline for VTE prophylaxis. This study focuses on how VTE prophylaxis is being performed in both medical and surgical ICUs in a single University hospital, and sees the differences in such prophylactic patterns.

Can thrombin generation measurement predict the risk of venous thromboembolism in acute ill patients Traditional coagulation tests do not assess the whole coagulation system. Thrombin generation assays measure the ability of plasma sample to generate thrombin following in vitro activation of coagulation. In contrast to the classical clotting assays, thrombin generation reflects and integrates all pro and anticoagulant reactions that regulate the formation and inhibition of thrombin. The aim of our study is to investigate whether thrombin generation would be able to predict a hypercoagulable state in acute ill patients admitted in the internal medical departments and how it correlates with the Padua prediction score, a score that could assists the risk for venous thromboembolism in hospitalized medical patients. In total 300 patients are planned for inclusion in this trial. After signing an informed consent a blood sample will be obtained from each participant. We will measure the thrombin generation over time in plasma assessed by the calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT).
