Best Antithrombotic Therapy in Patients With Acute Venous ThromboEmbolism While Taking Antiplatelets
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease share common risk factors and frequently coexist in the same patients. Their management requires use of antithrombotic agents: anticoagulant therapy (AC) for secondary prevention of VTE recurrence, antiplatelet (AP) for secondary prevention of major adverse ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) in patients …
Efficacy and Safety of Rivaroxaban in the Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism in Glioma Patients
Glioma is a common brain tumor with a high risk of venous thromboembolism during treatment, especially in the months after surgery. Postoperative lower extremity dyskinesia in patients with gliomas is considered as a high-risk factor for venous thromboembolism. Rivaroxaban, as an oral anticoagulants, has similar effect in the prevention and …
GEKO Venous Thromboembolism Prevention Study
This 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 …
Statins for Venous Event Reduction in Patients With Venous Thromboembolism
The standard or usual treatment for patients diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism is treatment with blood thinners (called anticoagulants). While treatment of blood clots with blood thinners is effective, some research has shown that adding a statin (medication used to lower cholesterol) may give extra protection. It …
Anti Xa Monitoring Low Molecular Weight Heparin on Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism, is a common cardiovascular disease associated with significant morbidity ranging from painful leg swelling, chest pain, shortness of breath, and even death. About 50% of all VTE events occur as a result of a current or recent hospital …
CHIPs-VTE Study in Hospitalized Patients to Prevent Hospital-Acquired Venous Thromboembolism
Although 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 …
VTE Prevention Following Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
Consented patients undergoing elective total hip and total knee arthroplasty will be randomized to receive either aspirin alone or aspirin and rivaroxaban for prevention of venous thromboembolism.
Comparison of Bleeding Risk Between Rivaroxaban and Apixaban for the Treatment of Acute Venous Thromboembolism
Apixaban and rivaroxaban have been compared to standard therapy for treatment of acute symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) in randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and are both approved by Health Canada. No safety or efficacy data is available from direct head-to-head comparison of these two anticoagulants. Lawsuits in the United States over …
Effectiveness of Interventions for Hospital Medical Thromboprophylaxis: a Bicentric Swiss Quality-improvement Study
The primary objective is to evaluate and compare the short-term and medicum-term effectiveness of 2 types of interventions in 2 different hospitals to improve the adequacy of hospital thromboprophylaxis among acute medical inpatients.
Optimal Dosing For Low-Dose Aspirin Chemoprophylaxis For VTE Following Total Joint Arthroplasty
This research study is attempting to answer the question of whether 81 mg aspirin once daily is as effective as 81 mg aspirin twice daily in preventing blood clots after total joint replacement surgery.
