175 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
After a child has their tonsils removed, sometimes they might bleed which can be a problem. There is a special mist medicine called nebulized tranexamic acid (TXA) that might help stop the bleeding without having to touch the sore spot. If this mist works well, it could help kids get better by making sure they don't have to go back for more surgery or need blood from someone else. Not having another surgery is good because it means kids won't have to sleep under medicine again, which can sometimes be risky for their brains and breathing, and they won't feel as scared or hurt.

A Phase 2 Randomized Double-Blind Active-Controlled Study in Subjects Exposed to Cardio-pulmonary Bypass During Cardiac Surgery at High Risk of Bleeding
The purpose of this study is to determine whether recombinant human Thrombin (rhThrombin) is effective in stopping bleeding during surgery, in comparison with bovine thrombin.
The purpose of this study is to see if Human Thrombin is as effective as Bovine Thrombin in stopping surgical bleeding within 10 minutes of application.
Hypothesis: Topical application of Tranexamic acid into the surgical wound during spine surgery will decrease the overall blood loss post-operatively. This reduction in blood loss will reduce the need for transfusion. In addition it will also significantly reduce the cost of the surgical procedure. Specific Aim 1: The goal of this study is to quantitatively assess whether topical application of tranexamic acid placed into the surgical wound during lumbar spine surgery will decrease post-operative blood loss, thus lowering the need for blood transfusions. By reducing the number of transfusions participants can avoid the well-known complications associated with them. The investigators do not plan on measuring serum tranexamic acid levels. Several meta-analyses and level I studies have shown that intravenous (IV) administration of tranexamic acid is effective in reducing postoperative blood loss and the need for transfusion.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and identify the optimal dose(s) of ecallantide in reducing blood loss in subjects undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery including the use of cardio pulmonary bypass.
Sternal bleeding remains an unsolved problem for cardiac surgery teams costing operative time, blood loss, and distraction from the critical operative field. As such, the following is an investigator-initiated trial to determine whether application of a topical hemostatic agent reduces sternal bleeding during cardiac surgery using sternotomy approach.
This is a multicentre, active-control randomized, prospective, Phase 3 study in adult cardiac surgery patients. Approximately 500 patients will be randomized at approximately 12 hospitals.
This study will investigate how chest temperature relates to blood loss and blood clotting. Researchers will use infra-red thermometers to measure the temperature of the chest at the end of surgery see if this relates to the amount of blood collected from the surgical drains. In addition, researchers will test if warm irrigation of the chest increases the temperature of the chest and if this impacts blood loss.
The purpose of this clinical investigation in open, elective, spine surgery is to collect data to support the removal of the neurosurgical exclusion from the currently approved indication for the use of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows. This study is primarily designed to assess safety of the device for use in spine surgery, although efficacy information will also be captured and reported.
The objective of the study is to evaluate if FS Grifols is non-inferior to EVICEL® in terms of the percentage of participants achieving hemostasis at the target bleeding site (TBS) by 4 minutes (T4) from the start of treatment application (TStart) with no occurrence of rebleeding until the completion of the surgical closure by layers of the exposed surgical field containing the TBS (TClosure).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and hemostatic effectiveness of EVARREST as an adjunct to controlling mild to moderate soft hepatic parenchyma or soft tissue bleeding during open hepatic, abdominal, pelvic, retroperitoneal, and thoracic (non-cardiac) surgery in pediatric population.
This study will evaluate if the timing of oxytocin administration in cesarean deliveries will affect the amount of maternal blood loss. Half of participants will receive oxytocin after delivery of the fetal anterior shoulder and the other half will receive oxytocin after delivery of the placenta. We hypothesize that administering oxytocin after delivery of the shoulder, will result in less overall maternal blood loss.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Fibrin Sealant Grifols in patients undergoing open surgical procedures where bleeding may be present on parenchymous tissue (e.g., solid abdominal organs such as the liver). The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Fibrin Sealant Grifols is not inferior to commercially-available oxidized cellulose pads (Surgicel®) in providing benefit in the time to hemostasis (i.e, the stoppage of bleeding). This study has a Preliminary Part (I) for study teams to become familiar with the application of Fibrin Sealant Grifols and to assess safety and a Primary Part (II) to assess the safety and efficacy of Fibrin Sealant Grifols. In both parts of the study, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either Fibrin Sealant Grifols or Surgicel.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant (FS) Grifols in patients undergoing elective (non-emergency) soft tissue open surgery where bleeding may be present. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that FS Grifols is not inferior to commercially-available oxidized cellulose pads (Surgicel®) in providing benefit in the time to hemostasis (i.e, the stoppage of bleeding). This study has a Preliminary Part (I) for study teams to become familiar with the application of FS Grifols and a Primary Part (II) to assess the safety and efficacy of FS Grifols. In both parts of the study, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either FS Grifols or Surgicel.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the application of Fibrin Sealant Grifols provides a measurable benefit when compared to hemostasis achieved through conventional surgical technique (suture) and by standard hemostatic action, such as mechanical pressure through manual compression. This study has a Preliminary Part (I) in which all subjects are treated with Fibrin Sealant Grifols and a Primary Part (II) in which subjects are randomized in a 2:1 ratio to either Fibrin Sealant Grifols or manual compression.
Surgery on the aorta can be associated with significant blood loss. Most commonly this is due to bleeding at the site of aortic anastomosis. Surgical bleeding is associated with significant morbidity. One way to prevent bleeding is to use a special glue (sealant) after performing large connections on the aorta. The goal of this study is to compare the different methods surgeons use to stop/prevent bleeding. The study team will collect medical information about patients before, during, and after surgery on their aortas, including the methods used to prevent bleeding. This information may help doctors improve the way that they care for these patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess if aprotinin (BAYA0128), given intravenously during your surgery, is safe and can help reduce the need for a blood transfusion during bladder surgery.
The objective of this study is to determine if tAN therapy can reduce the volume of blood lost during dialysis AV graft placement procedures.
Although serious complications from second trimester abortion are rare hemorrhage is the most common cause of procedural abortion related morbidity and mortality. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin E1 analogue that is used by 75% of clinicians prior to procedural abortion for the purpose of cervical preparation. Misoprostol is also known to decrease blood loss in first trimester abortion and is used to treat postpartum hemorrhage, however the effect of preprocedural misoprostol on procedural blood loss is not well described. We will conduct a double blinded placebo-controlled gestational age stratified superiority trial of those undergoing procedural abortion between 18 and 23 weeks gestation at Stanford Health care. Participants will be randomized to either 400mcg buccal misoprostol or placebo on the day of the procedure. A quantified blood loss (QBL) will be measured during the procedure and participants will complete a survey to assess symptoms. Our primary outcome is quantified blood loss. Secondary outcomes include clinical interventions to manage excess bleeding, total procedure time, provider reported experience, patient reported experience.
