  • Empiric Calcium in Massive Transfusion

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    Calcium helps blood to clot and thereby stop bleeding. Trauma patients who experience large volume blood loss often require blood transfusions and bleeding is the most common cause of death. The purpose of this study is to see if giving intravenous calcium immediately to patients who require large volume blood transfusion will decrease transfusion requirements, vasopressor use and mortality in bleeding trauma patients.

  • Tranexamic Acid for Second Trimester Dilation and Evacuation and Bleeding Outcomes

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    Although procedural abortion in the second trimester is extremely safe, hemorrhage is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is used commonly in obstetrics to prevent or manage intrapartum or postpartum hemorrhage and has been associated with decreased mortality and decreased blood loss at the time of birth. Some guidelines are recommending the use of TXA for both the prevention and management of bleeding for abortion care. However, there are currently no published studies assessing the association between TXA and bleeding outcomes for abortion procedures. This study will involve a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of pregnant patients aged 18 and older desiring dilation and evacuation (D&E) for abortion or fetal demise at 18-24 weeks gestation. The primary aim is to determine whether prophylactic TXA has an effect on the need for additional interventions to control bleeding at the time of D&E. The secondary aim is to determine whether prophylactic TXA has an effect on the mean quantitative procedural blood loss.

  • Traumatic Injury Clinical Trial Evaluating Tranexamic Acid in Children: an Efficacy Study

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    Trauma is the leading cause of death and disability in children in the United States. The objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits and harms of tranexamic acid (TXA; a drug that stops bleeding) in severely injured children with hemorrhagic brain and/or torso injuries. Using thromboelastography, we will measure baseline fibrinolysis to assess for treatment effects of TXA at different levels of fibrinolysis.

  • Obsidio™ Conformable Embolic Registry

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    OCCLUDE is a prospective, post-approval, open-label, single arm, multi-center US registry of patients who undergo embolization with Obsidio™ Conformable Embolic. The purpose of this Registry is to assess effectiveness and safety outcomes of subjects who undergo embolization with Obsidio.
