THROMBOSIS

This study looked at 345 people with a severe type of stroke caused by a blockage in the main artery at the back of the brain. It compared two treatments: giving a clot-busting drug followed by a mechanical procedure to remove the clot, versus doing the mechanical procedure alone…

This study looked at whether using softer, more flexible materials for intravenous catheters (cannulas) can reduce irritation and damage to veins. 27 healthy adults each had two catheters placed in opposite arms—one standard and one softer—and were monitored for up to 72 hours. T…

This study tested two heart failure drugs, sotagliflozin and empagliflozin, to see how they affect blood clot formation in 17 healthy volunteers. Each person took both drugs at different times, and researchers measured clot size and platelet activity. The goal was to find out if …

This study looked at 100 people who recently had a heart attack to better understand blood clots in the heart and brain. Using special PET/MR scans, researchers tracked clot activity over time. The goal was to learn more about how clots form and dissolve, which could lead to bett…

This study looked at 700 cancer patients to understand how often they develop dangerous blood clots (like deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism). It focused on patients who already take blood thinners or have low platelet counts, which can complicate treatment. The goal was …
