6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a single center prospective observational study to compare QStat parameter measurements in arterial and venous blood samples collected in parallel from patients undergoing liver transplantation.
This is a single center prospective observational study to compare QPlus parameter measurements in arterial and venous blood samples collected in parallel from patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Post marketing observational study on safety of BALFAXAR vs. KCENTRA for Reversal of Vitamin K Antagonist Induced Anticoagulation in Adults Undergoing Urgent Surgery or Invasive Procedure
This study is a Phase 1, single-center, open-label, ascending dose study which will assess the safety and tolerability of 5 doses of spray-dried solvent/detergent treated plasma (Resusix®) in healthy volunteers.
Cesarean delivery has become the most common surgical procedure in the US. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to improve the quality of post-cesarean analgesia and markedly reduce opioid consumption. The effect of NSAIDs on healthy volunteers results in inhibition of platelet aggregation and prolonged bleeding time. However, in the obstetric population, the presence and degree of platelet inhibition after NSAID exposure is less clear. The investigators plan to use Platelet Aggregometry and Thromboelastography (TEG) to evaluate the effect of ketorolac on platelets.
In this randomized, double-blind control trial to evaluate the effect of ketorolac given at the time of cord clamp has on estimated blood loss and postcesarean pain control. Patients will be randomized to either placebo or ketorolac prior to surgery. Those randomized to ketorolac will receive ketorolac at cord clamp and three additional doses every 6 hours (total 4 doses/24 hours). Those in the placebo group will receive normal saline during those time periods. Our primary outcome is to assess whether intra-operative ketorolac increases the estimated blood loss during Cesarean delivery.
