About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Prevention of Thromboembolic Disease in Patients With a Lower Limb Trauma, Non Surgical, in Winter Sports Resort.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of thromboembolic diseases and heparin complications in patients with a lower limb trauma supported by physicians of mountain.

Read the detailed description

The "M2M-thrombose" study is a prospective epidemiological multicenter study involving patients with a lower limb trauma in winter sport resorts. The following initial data required are type of immobilization, treatment with LMWH (Low Molecular Weight Heparin), type of injury (serious or not) and the rolling of the step (normal or abnormal) or no weight bearing.

A 3 month follow-up by phone will be realized by the Investigation Clinical Center in Grenoble. Data about risk factors of thromboembolic diseases, anticoagulant therapy, medical history, new event since inclusion (hospitalization, surgery, lower limb trauma or thromboembolic events) will be collected.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. impact of a thromboembolic disease and heparin's complications

    Evaluation of the impact of a thromboembolic disease and heparin's complications in outpatients with a lower limb trauma are supported by physicians in winter sports resort. The patients will be contacted by phone 3 months after trauma to collect these data.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. compliance with the algorithm for prescribing heparin and consequences on the primary endpoint

    The primary endpoint consists to check the impact of thromboembolic disease and adverse effects of anticoagulant therapy at 3 month.

    We compare the link between these consequences and the compliance with the algorithm about the indication of LMWH therapy.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. incidence of thromboembolic diseases and heparin complications in different subgroups

    Analysis of subgroups depending on the trauma type, the type of immobilization or not, risk factors of thromboembolic diseases, rolling step and weight bearing.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Description of the included patients

    epidemiological description of included patients (age, sex, travel time...)

    Measured: evaluation during inclusion visit

  4. Epidemiological characteristics of patients with a thromboembolic event or an adverse effect of the treatment

    Measured: 3 months

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?

impact of a thromboembolic disease and heparin's complications (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01303523, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 6 Mar 2015.
