About this study

Official title: Inferior Vena Cava Filters Utilization in Patients With Venous Thromboembolism: Analysis of a Database of a Tertiary Hospital

In this study a retrospective analysis of patients database was performed, who underwent treatment for deep vein thrombosis in tertiary hospital by using inferior vena cava-filters

Read the detailed description

The aim of this research was to assess the cava-filter implantation frequency in a tertiary hospital with venous thromboembolism treatment center.

A retrospective analysis of patient's database was performed, who underwent treatment in the tertiary clinic between 2016 - 2017. In total, 2399 patients with venous thromboembolism were hospitalized, 442 cava-filters were implanted (239 in 2016 and 203 in 2017), which accounted for 18.4% of patients with venous thromboembolism. Removable cava-filters models were used in most cases (98.8%). Contraindications for anticoagulation were reason for cava-filters implantation in 119 (26.9%) cases, and in 184 patients (41.6%) cava-filters were implanted due to the inefficiency of anticoagulation. 38 (8.6%) patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism had pulmonary hypertension of the 2nd to 3rd degree, which caused the implantation of cava-filters .

The occlusion of the inferior vena cava and cava-filters verified in 116 (26.9%) patients after cava-filters implantation, based on repeated ultrasound. The overall mortality rate in the group of patients with venous thromboembolism was 0.25% (6 patients), 5 of them (1.1%) underwent cava-filters implantation. The cause of all lethal outcomes was the progression of the underlying disease. During the next hospitalization 29 (6.5%) of implanted filters were endovascularly removed.

There are 18.4% of patients with venous thromboembolism undergoing cava-filters implantation for various reasons in a tertiary hospital. At the same time, occlusion of the inferior vena cava and cava-filters in the early post implantation period is observed in 26.9%. However, without clear criteria for the differentiation of cava-filters embolism from its thrombosis, we cannot assess whether this was a complication, or if the cava-filters completed its task by preventing pulmonary embolism. Thus, the validity of implanting cava filters question in terms of efficiency and safety remains unanswered, which poses the task for deep study of this problem and thorough analysis of the indications for the cava-filters implantation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with occlusion of inferior vena cava-filter

    Number of participants with embolic or thrombotic occlusion of inferior vena cava-filter

    Measured: from date of inferior vena cava-filter implantation until the date of discharge, up to 1-2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants who have undergone cava-filter removal

    Number of participants , who underwent retrieving of cava-filter due to the pulmonary embolism risk regression

    Measured: from date of inferior vena cava-filter implantation until the date of discharge, up to 1-2 weeks

  2. Number of participants with implanted cava filter in whom the filter remained intact

    Number of participants with filter implanted without the possibility of its removal due to various reasons and without its occlusion

    Measured: from date of inferior vena cava-filter implantation until the date of discharge, up to 1-2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolus, run by Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University at 1 site in Russia.

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 4 inclusion and 0 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 6 Apr 2020. 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 Russia. 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?

Number of participants with occlusion of inferior vena cava-filter (time frame: from date of inferior vena cava-filter implantation until the date of discharge, up to 1-2 weeks). 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 6 Apr 2020.
