Prospective Observational Pilot Study of LMWH Versus UFH as ECMO Anticoagulation in Lung Transplantation
The aim of this observational pilot study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) compared to unfractionated heparin (UFH) as anticoagulation in perioperative ECMO during bilateral lung transplantation. The main question this study seeks to answer is: Does LMWH provide a safe and effective alternative to …
The Origin and Role of Thromboembolism in the Pathogenesis of Ischaemic Stroke
Ischaemic stroke is usually due to occlusion of a cerebral artery by thrombus. However, it is often difficult to identify the source of thrombus, or to confirm thrombus as a cause of ischaemic stroke. Moreover, it is debated whether thrombosis plays any role in certain types of stroke such as …
The "MyoThrombus" Study
Left ventricular thrombus is a recognised complication of acute myocardial infarction, associated with stroke, recurrent myocardial infarction and adverse cardiac remodelling. The prevention, treatment and resolution of thrombus is hampered by a lack of understanding of its initiation, propagation and dissolution. Advanced non-invasive imaging holds major promise in improving our …
Extracellular Vesicle Micro RNA Profiling in Congenital Heart Disease: Fetal-Maternal Regulation in Neonatal Thrombosis
Newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD) are at increased risk of developing postpartum and postoperative blood clots after cardiac surgery. The molecular mechanisms that are responsible for the clotting profile predisposing children to blood clots in the early stages of life are currently not well described. The goal of this …
International Registry of Thrombotic APS Patients Treated With Direct Oral Anticoagulants
This registry, currently being established will ensure consistency of data collection and provide safety information in non high-risk APS patients currently on DOACs.
Global Coagulation Assessment in Portal Vein Thrombosis and Budd-Chiari Syndrome
Portal vein thrombosis is defined as partial or complete occlusion of the portal vein lumen by the blood clot or its replacement by multiple collateral vessels with the hepato-petal flow, known as 'portal cavernoma'. [1,2] Based on the published literature, 15-25% of patients with cirrhosis have portal vein thrombosis (PVT) …
Non-invasive Coronary Thrombus Imaging to Define These Cause of Acute Myocardial Infarction
We now have very sensitive blood tests that can pick up damage to the heart and find patients who have had a heart attack. However, whilst this is welcome, it does not identify what causes the heart attack and can sometimes pick up other conditions that cause a strain on …
Single Center Post-Market Study of Thrombolytic Therapy Using the Versus™ Catheter
Assess the functionality of the Versus Catheter for catheter-directed thrombolysis of pulmonary blood clots, including advanced imaging assessment. An evaluation of patient outcomes from the cases included in this study will also be conducted.
Vascular Lab Resource (VLR) Biorepository
This is a study of biomarkers obtained from prospectively collected subject samples and their correlation with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. The purpose of this initiative is to develop an enduring tool to allow for collaborative research between clinicians at Cleveland Clinic Main Campus and basic scientists at the Lerner Research …
