TIPS vs Endoscopic Therapy for Variceal Rebleeding in Cirrhotic Patients With Portal Vein Thrombosis...
Portal Vein ThrombosisLiver Cirrhosisportal vein thrombosis may be a negative prognostic marker of variceal bleeding in liver cirrhosis. Compared with conventional endoscopic and pharmacological therapy, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt may further improve the outcomes of portal vein thrombosis in liver cirrhosis with variceal bleeding.
DEFIANCE: RCT of ClotTriever System Versus Anticoagulation In Deep Vein Thrombosis
Venous ThromboembolismDeep Venous Thrombosis1 moreThis study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial of an interventional strategy using the ClotTriever System to achieve and maintain vessel patency (ClotTriever Intervention Arm) versus conservative medical management using anticoagulation therapy alone (Conservative Medical Management Arm) in the treatment of subjects with symptomatic unilateral iliofemoral DVT. The study will collect data on demographics, comorbidities, details from the DVT diagnosis and treatment, and clinical outcomes through the 6-month follow up visit.
Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to...
ThrombosisDeep Vein1 moreThis is a study of a medical procedure that utilizes a commercially available catheter (the Bullfrog® Micro-Infusion Device) to locally deliver a commercially available anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection) around the deep veins after DVT recanalization, where DVT symptoms were present for up to 14 days prior to recanalization. The goal of the study is to see if local anti-inflammation helps prevent re-thrombosis of the blood vessel and improvement in symptoms for up to 24 months after the initial DVT recanalization procedure.
Weekly Monitoring Strategy of Capillary INR Versus Monthly Monitoring Strategy of Venous INR in...
Atrial FibrillationDeep Vein Thrombosis1 moreThis primary care study aims to compare the "time in therapeutic range" (TTR) of two strategies for monitoring the international normalized ratio (INR) over 6 months in nursing homes. The population consists of frail elderly patients for whom Anti-Vitamin K treatments are frequent, and who are consequently more prone to embolic and hemorrhagic complications.
CEFID-II (CEra Flow Improves DVT-II)
Blood Circulation DisorderDeep Vein ThrombosisFor Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) risk groups, the effect and safety of blood circulation improvement before and after application are evaluated using an investigational device (model name CGM MB-1701).
Catheter-Related Early Thromboprophylaxis With Enoxaparin Studies
Deep Venous ThrombosisThe goal of the CRETE Studies is to investigate the newly identified age-dependent heterogeneity in the efficacy of enoxaparin in reducing the risk of central venous catheter-associated deep venous thrombosis in critically ill children.
Diagnostic Validity of [18F]GP1 PET for Diagnosing Acute Deep Vein Thrombosis
Venous ThrombosisThe first-in-human study of [18F]GP1 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) showed that [18F]GP1 is safe and promising novel PET tracer for imaging acute venous thromboembolism with favorable biodistribution and pharmacokinetics in patients. The goal of this phase 2 study is to evaluate whether [18F]GP1 PET/CT is sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of acute deep vein thrombosis in the appropriate patient population and clinical setting. This study will provide preliminary evidence of efficacy and expand the safety database in a larger group of patients who were suspected of having acute deep vein thrombosis. This study will further optimize image acquisition techniques, and develop methods and criteria by which [18F]GP1 PET/CT will be evaluated. Other critical questions about [18F]GP1 biodistribution including [18F]GP1 uptake in pulmonary and systemic arteries will be evaluated.
CHIPs-VTE Study in Hospitalized Patients to Prevent Hospital-Acquired Venous Thromboembolism
Venous Thromboembolic DiseasePulmonary Embolism3 moreAlthough pharmacologic and mechanical methods to prevent VTE are safe, effective, cost-effective, and advocated by authoritative guidelines,many studies continue to demonstrate that these preventive methods are significantly underutilized, especially in China.A number of quality improvements (QI) program have been established in several countries or hospitals.However,no exit effective protocol has been demonstrated well enough or adequate to drive breakthrough levels of improvement. A reliable and practical QI that can support hospitals or physicians in China is warranted.To evaluate the multifaceted quality improvement intervention effect in clinical setting, we will conduct a cluster-randomized clinical trial among China PUlmonary Thromboembolism REgistry Study (CURES) group, aiming to test whether it's applicable to real-world practice in China. A multicenter, two-arms, open-label clinical trial has been designed to determine whether the system-wide multifaceted intervention could increase the rate of at-risk participants who received prophylaxis (RP) and decrease the incidence of any hospital-associated VTE in 90 days during and after hospital admission. .Selected hospital will be regarded as a cluster and randomized into interventional or control group.In interventional group, eligible hospitalized patients will receive a variety of the multifaceted quality improvement(QI) interventions since admitted in hospital.In control group, patients will receive no more than common recommended care or an existing policy.The primary outcomes are the proportion of appropriate prophylaxis in hospitalized patients and the incidence of HA-VTE in 90 days after hospital admission.
GEKO Venous Thromboembolism Prevention Study
StrokeAcute3 moreThis multicentre, randomised geko™ venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention study will prospectively collect clinical data on VTE occurrences in immobile patients after stroke, who will be randomised, on a 1:1 allocation, to receive either standard of care (Intermittent Pneumatic Compression) or geko™ neuromuscular electrostimulation device. The aim is to assess the prevention of VTE during a follow-up period of 90 days (three months) post-randomisation.
Pre-operative Enoxaparin in the Surgical Management of Multi-trauma Patients Undergoing Orthopedic...
Venous Thrombosis Deep (Limbs)Surgical Blood LossAll trauma patients receive Lovenox or other prophylactic medication to prevent deep vein clots from forming. For the trauma patients with orthopedic injuries requiring surgery there is controversy over safety and efficacy when prophylaxis is started preoperatively vs postoperatively. This study is to evaluate both approaches for safety in terms of bleeding events during and 24 hours after surgery as well as preventing deep vein clot formation. This will be a randomized double blinded study using Lovenox or placebo as the medications given preoperatively. Postoperative Lovenox will be given to both groups per routine regime.
