										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The study focuses on patients who have <b>cancer</b> and are found to have an incidental <b>Pulmonary Embolism</b>, specifically a small clot in a branch of the lung artery called a subsegmental clot that is discovered by chance. The purpose is to compare the effects of starting an <b>anticoagulant</b> medication versus not giving one, in order to see how this influences survival, bleeding, repeat clotting, continuation of cancer therapy, and overall quality of life.</p>
<p>Participants are randomly assigned to receive either a daily oral pill such as <b>edoxaban</b> or <b>apixaban</b>, an injectable medicine such as <b>dalteparin</b>, <b>tinzaparin</b>, <b>enoxaparin</b>, or <b>rivaroxaban</b>, or a <b>placebo</b> that looks the same but contains no active drug. Over several months, they will have regular check‑ups that may include simple scans of the lungs to confirm whether the clot has changed, and they will complete questionnaires about their daily well‑being. The study does not require any special procedures beyond the usual care for cancer and clot management.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a treatment for <b>pulmonary embolism</b>, a condition where one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked by a blood clot. The study will use two treatments: <b>Pulmocis</b>, which is a suspension for injection containing human albumin as macroaggregates, and <b>Pulmotec</b>, an inhalation powder containing graphite. These treatments are used to help assess lung function after a pulmonary embolism.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to evaluate how these treatments affect lung function using a special imaging technique called <b>PET/CT</b>, which combines positron emission tomography and computed tomography to create detailed images of the lungs. Participants will receive either the treatment or a placebo and will undergo several imaging sessions to monitor changes in lung function over time. The study aims to understand how well the lungs are working after treatment and to identify any improvements in breathing and overall lung health.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, participants will have regular check-ups and imaging tests to track their progress. The study will last for a period of time, during which participants will be closely monitored by healthcare professionals. The goal is to gather information that could help improve treatment options for people with pulmonary embolism in the future.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the prevention of recurrent episodes of <em>Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)</em> in elderly patients. VTE is a condition where blood clots form in the veins, which can lead to serious health issues like <em>Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)</em> or <em>Pulmonary Embolism (PE)</em>. The study involves the use of a medication called <em>Sulodexide</em>, marketed under the name <em>VESSEL® 250 ULS capsule molli</em>. Sulodexide is an antithrombotic, which means it helps prevent the formation of blood clots. The trial will compare the effects of two different doses of Sulodexide with a placebo, which is a capsule that looks like the medication but does not contain the active substance.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to verify the effectiveness and safety of Sulodexide in reducing the chances of VTE coming back in patients aged 75 years and older who have recently experienced a first episode of DVT or PE. The study will monitor the participants over a period to see if Sulodexide can lower the risk of new blood clots by 35% compared to the placebo. Additionally, the study will assess the safety of Sulodexide by checking for any major bleeding events, aiming to show that it is not inferior to the placebo in terms of safety.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will take either Sulodexide or the placebo orally, in the form of soft capsules. The trial will last for a maximum of 12 months, during which the health of the participants will be closely monitored to track any new episodes of VTE, overall mortality due to VTE, and any major bleeding incidents. The study aims to provide valuable information on the potential benefits and risks of using Sulodexide for preventing recurrent VTE in elderly patients.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a medication called <i>Rosuvastatin Calcium</i> in patients who have experienced certain types of blood clots. The diseases being studied include <i>Pulmonary Embolism</i>, <i>Venous Thromboembolism</i>, and <i>Deep Vein Thrombosis</i>. These conditions involve the formation of blood clots in the veins, which can be serious and require medical attention. The trial will compare the effects of Rosuvastatin Calcium to a placebo, which is a substance with no active medication, to see if the medication can help reduce the occurrence of these blood clots.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to determine if taking Rosuvastatin Calcium can lower the rate of major blood clot events in patients who have already had a clot. Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either Rosuvastatin Calcium or a placebo. The study will monitor the participants over a period of time to observe any differences in the recurrence of blood clots between the two groups. The trial will also look at other health outcomes, such as the development of post-thrombotic syndrome, which is a condition that can occur after a blood clot, and other vascular events like heart attacks or strokes.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, participants will be regularly checked to ensure their safety and to gather information on how the medication is affecting their health. The trial is expected to continue until the end of 2027, providing valuable insights into the potential benefits of Rosuvastatin Calcium for patients with these types of blood clots.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of using <em>oxygen</em> as a treatment for patients with <em>acute pulmonary embolism</em>. Acute pulmonary embolism is a condition where one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked by a blood clot. The trial aims to determine how effective supplemental oxygen is for patients who are at intermediate risk due to this condition.</p>
<p>The study will involve patients who have been diagnosed with acute pulmonary embolism and will assess the role of oxygen over a period of 30 days. Participants will receive oxygen through inhalation, which means breathing in the oxygen gas. The trial will compare the outcomes of those receiving oxygen with those who do not, to see if oxygen helps improve their condition.</p>
<p>The main goal of the study is to evaluate whether using oxygen can prevent serious complications such as hemodynamic collapse, which is a severe drop in blood pressure, or death within 30 days. The study will also look at other factors like the length of hospital stay and any serious side effects. The results will help understand if oxygen is beneficial for patients with acute pulmonary embolism.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying a condition known as <i>Isolated Subsegmental Pulmonary Embolism</i> (SSPE), which is a type of blood clot that occurs in the lungs. The trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two different approaches for managing this condition in patients who are considered low-risk. One approach involves close monitoring, known as clinical surveillance, without the use of blood-thinning medication. The other approach uses a medication called <i>Rivaroxaban</i>, which is a type of anticoagulant or blood thinner, to prevent further clotting. The medication is provided in the form of a film-coated tablet and is taken orally.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to compare these two approaches to see which is more effective in preventing further blood clots and ensuring patient safety. Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to either receive clinical surveillance or the anticoagulant treatment with Rivaroxaban. Some participants may receive a placebo, which is a tablet that looks like the medication but does not contain the active ingredient. The study will last for a period of up to 90 days, during which time participants will be monitored for any symptoms of recurrent blood clots, as well as any significant bleeding or other health issues.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, researchers will also assess the overall health and quality of life of the participants, as well as their use of medical resources. The goal is to determine whether clinical surveillance alone is as effective and safe as using anticoagulation therapy with Rivaroxaban for managing low-risk patients with isolated SSPE. This information will help guide future treatment decisions for this condition.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of blood thinners, specifically low molecular weight heparins, in patients with a condition known as <i>venous thromboembolism</i>. This condition involves the formation of blood clots in the veins, which can be dangerous if not treated properly. The trial will compare two medications: <i>TINZAPARIN</i> and <i>DALTEPARIN</i>. Both of these medications are types of blood thinners that help prevent the formation of clots by making the blood less likely to clot.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether treatment with these blood thinners affects the risk of bleeding that requires medical attention or leads to death within 30 days of starting the treatment. Participants in the study will receive either <i>TINZAPARIN</i> or <i>DALTEPARIN</i> through a subcutaneous injection, which means the medication is injected under the skin. The study will monitor patients over a period of time to observe any major bleeding events or other health outcomes.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, researchers will track various health indicators, such as the need for blood transfusions, the occurrence of <i>pulmonary embolism</i> (a blockage in the lung&#8217;s blood vessels), and any signs of <i>heparin-induced thrombocytopenia</i> (a condition where the blood has a lower than normal number of platelets). The study will also look at overall survival rates and the length of hospital stays.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the best treatment options for patients with <b>acute venous thromboembolism (VTE)</b>, a condition where blood clots form in the veins, often in the legs, and can travel to the lungs, causing a blockage known as a pulmonary embolism. The study will compare the effectiveness of using full-dose <b>anticoagulant therapy</b> alone versus combining it with <b>antiplatelet therapy</b>. Anticoagulants are medications that help prevent blood clots, while antiplatelets are used to prevent blood cells called platelets from clumping together, which can also lead to clots.</p>
<p>The medications being studied include <b>INNOHEP</b> (tinzaparin sodium), <b>COUMADINE</b> (warfarin sodium), <b>Eliquis</b> (apixaban), <b>FRAGMINE</b> (dalteparin sodium), <b>Arixtra</b> (fondaparinux sodium), <b>SINTROM</b> (acenocoumarol), <b>HEPARINE CHOAY</b> (heparin sodium), <b>KARDEGIC</b> (d,l-lysine acetylsalicylate), <b>CALCIPARINE</b> (heparin calcium), <b>LOVENOX</b> (enoxaparin sodium), <b>Xarelto</b> (rivaroxaban), and <b>Plavix</b> (clopidogrel). Some participants will receive a placebo, which is a substance with no active medication, to compare the effects of the actual treatments.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to determine if using full-dose anticoagulant therapy alone reduces the risk of significant bleeding compared to using it in combination with antiplatelet therapy. Participants will be monitored for up to 12 months to assess the occurrence of bleeding and other related health events. The study aims to provide insights into the safest and most effective treatment approach for patients with acute VTE who are also taking antiplatelet medications for other heart-related conditions.</p>

The study will use a special imaging technique called <i>pulmonary CT angiography</i> to help diagnose this condition. This technique involves using a type of X-ray called <i>computed tomography (CT)</i> to take detailed pictures of the blood vessels in the lungs. To improve the quality of these images, a substance called <i>iodinated contrast</i> is used. In this study, the contrast used is called <i>Iomeron 400 mgI/ml solution for injection</i>, which contains the active ingredient <i>iomeprol</i>.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to compare the quality and accuracy of the images produced by using three different amounts of the iodinated contrast: 20 mL, 30 mL, and 40 mL. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of these three amounts during their CT scan. The study aims to determine which amount provides the best images for diagnosing <i>pulmonary embolism</i>. The trial will measure how well the contrast highlights the blood vessels in the lungs and how accurately it helps detect blood clots.</p>
<p>Participants in the study will undergo a <i>pulmonary CT angiography</i> scan, where the contrast is injected into a vein, and images are taken to assess the blood flow in the lungs. The study will evaluate the images to see how well the different amounts of contrast work in identifying <i>pulmonary embolism</i>. This research will help improve the diagnosis of this condition by finding the most effective way to use the contrast during the scan.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying the treatment of <b>pulmonary embolism</b>, a condition where one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked by a blood clot. The study is exploring three different treatment methods for patients with a specific type of this condition known as intermediate high-risk pulmonary embolism. The treatments being tested include a procedure called <b>percutaneous embolectomy</b>, which involves using a device to remove the clot, and a method called <b>ultrasound-assisted low dose thrombolysis</b> using a medication called <b>alteplase</b>. The third treatment option is the use of <b>heparin</b>, a medication that helps prevent blood clots, with the possibility of using a full dose of clot-busting drugs if needed.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness of these treatments in reducing the amount of clot in the lungs. Participants in the study will receive one of these treatments and will be monitored to see how well the treatment works in reducing the clot and improving their condition. The study will also look at other factors such as any bleeding complications, the length of hospital stay, and the overall quality of life after treatment.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, participants will undergo various assessments to track their progress, including tests to measure their ability to breathe and walk, as well as their overall heart function. The study aims to provide valuable information on the best treatment approach for patients with intermediate high-risk pulmonary embolism, helping to improve outcomes and quality of life for those affected by this condition.</p>
