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 …
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 …
Pregnancy and Risk of Venous Thromboembolism
The management of venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk in pregnancy still remains a challenge. An individual assessment of the VTE risk is crucial for optimal thromboprophylaxis, but there is no validated tool to help clinicians stratify the risk in pregnant women and introduce prophylactic anticoagulation at the appropriate time. Recommendations mostly …
PROphylaxis for Venous ThromboEmbolism in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (PROTEST)
This is a pilot study, phase III, multi-centre, double blind, randomized controlled trial of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
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 …
Screening for Occult Malignancy in Patients With Unprovoked Venous Thromboembolism
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can be the earliest sign of cancer. Identifying occult cancers at the time of VTE diagnosis may lead to significant improvement of patients' care. This is also an upmost issue for patients who want to know if an underlying cancer might have triggered the VTE. An individual …
Prevention of Postpartum Venous Thromboembolism in Women at Intermediate Risk
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is currently the second cause of death in women of reproductive age worldwide. The incidence of VTE during pregnancy is 1.2 to 1.4/1000 women, half of VTE occurring during postpartum and as PE in majority of cases, accounting for 8.8% of maternal deaths. Majority of postpartum VTE …
Shared Decision-making Process for Unprovoked vEnous THromboEmbolism Management. (ETHER )
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) is a frequent disease and the third most common cause of cardiovascular death in the world after myocardial infarction and stroke. Anticoagulant therapy drastically reduces the risk of early VTE recurrence and death, but it exposes patients to …
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 …
Sulodexide, VESSEL®, for the Prevention of Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism (The Jason Study)
The study aims at optimizing extended management of elderly patients (> 75 years) with at least one of the known bleeding risk factor, who suffered from first episode of venous thromboembolism of the lower extremity (proximal deep vein thrombosis with or without pulmonary embolism) (VTE). Patients were randomized to receive …
