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 …
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.
The Effect of ACT and Tranexamic Acid on Bleeding in Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to the dose effect of tranexamic acid and the level of ACT on bleeding in adult cardiac surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does higher dose of tranexamic acid reduce the amount of bleeding and blood transfusion? Does lower ACT …
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Thrombosis
The purpose of the study is to evaluate a new radiotracer called 64Cu-FBP8 for PET-MR imaging of thrombosis. The tracer has the potential of detecting thrombosis anywhere in the body, for instance in the left atrial appendage of patients with atrial fibrillation, and thereby may provide a non-invasive alternative to …
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 …
Thrombin Generation Parameters and Bleeding in Patients Treated With Anticoagulants for Cancer Associated Thrombosis
Pulmonary embolism, the second leading cause of death in cancer patients, is effectively treated with anticoagulants. In patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT), the use of anticoagulants is associated with 10 to 15% of bleeding in the first 6 months. Most of the guidelines propose to integrate the bleeding risk in …
Reducing Gastrointestinal Bleeding With Proton Pump Inhibitor Therapy in Acute Venous Thromboembolism
The investigators are studying whether treatment with a proton pump inhibitor called omeprazole reduces gastrointestinal bleeding in older adults taking blood thinners for a blood clot (venous thromboembolism). The purpose of this study, a pilot study or a feasibility study, is to test the study plan and determine whether enough …
Effects of a Manual Therapy Program to Reduce the Evolution Time of Axillary Web Syndrome
ABSTRACT Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, with more than a million new cases annually. One of the most frequent surgical and post-actinic sequelae and well known is postmastectomy lymphedema. The axillary web syndrome is another sequel that limits the functionality of the patient and delays …
Effect of Dexmedetomidine on Microsurgery Reconstruction in Cancer Patient
This double-blinded randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine administration on early flap viability and microvascular integrity in cancer patients undergoing elective microvascular reconstructive surgery. The primary outcome is clinical flap viability within 48 hours postoperatively, assessed using a standardized scoring system based on flap color, …
