This study tests whether giving dry plasma (a powder that helps blood clot) during ambulance transport improves survival for people with severe bleeding from injuries, childbirth complications, or internal bleeding. Researchers will compare dry plasma against standard IV fluids i…

This study aims to create a better method for managing bleeding during open heart surgery. Researchers will test a new algorithm that analyzes blood samples to guide treatment decisions. The goal is to help doctors use blood products more precisely and improve patient safety duri…

This study is testing a combined procedure that treats atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) and closes a part of the heart to prevent stroke, all in one hospital visit. It will enroll 150 adults in Germany who have atrial fibrillation and are at risk for stroke. The goal …

This study is testing a new, less invasive way to treat a dangerous bleeding complication in people with advanced liver disease (cirrhosis). Doctors will use a special ultrasound scope to inject tiny particles into the spleen, aiming to reduce pressure in the liver's blood vessel…

This study aims to see if adding a measure of frailty (a state of reduced physical resilience) to standard risk scores can better predict serious bleeding in older patients hospitalized for a heart attack. It will enroll 850 patients over 65 years old. The goal is to gather knowl…

This study aims to better understand the risks of dangerous bleeding and blood clots in COVID-19 patients who are so sick they need a machine to breathe for them (called V-V ECMO). Researchers will look back at the medical records of 50 adult patients to see how often these compl…

This study aims to understand how safe current practices are for managing blood thinners in people with cancer who need surgery or medical procedures. Researchers will observe 700 patients to measure how often serious bleeding or dangerous blood clots happen after surgery. The go…
