About this study

Official title: Clinical Course and Prognosis of Patients With Vena Cava Inferior Thrombosis

The purpose of the study is to evaluate patients with inferior vena cava (IVC)thrombosis in terms of etiology, clinical course and prognosis during long-term follow-up. Patients with isolated lower extremity DVT, matched for age and gender, serve as controls.

Read the detailed description

All Patients are assessed using a standardized questionnaire and details concerning VTE risk factors, concomitant disease, medical conditions, diagnosis and therapy of IVC thrombosis were registered. A blood sample is taken to test for inherited and acquired thrombophilia. In addition, duplex ultrasound examination and digital photoplethysmograph are performed to assess postthrombotic syndrome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Inferior Vena Cava Thrombosis and Venous Thromboembolism, run by Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrent venous thromboembolism (time frame: 6, 12, 24 and 60 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Apr 2015.
