Effects of pasireotide treatment on coagulative profile: a prospective study in patients with Cushing's disease.

2018

Introduction: Cushing’s disease (CD) is characterized by procoagulative profile. Treatment with cortisol-reducing medications might normalize the coagulation impairment potentially eliminating the risk of thromboembolic complications. Aim: The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 6–12 months of treatment with pasireotide (Signifor®, Novartis) 600 µg twice daily on coagulative factors in 21 patients (16 females, mean age 46 ± 12.2 years) with CD. Biochemical, hormonal (urinary free cortisol, UFC; late night salivary cortisol, LNSC; ACTH) and coagulative parameters as Protrombin time (PT), aPTT, factors VIII, IX and XI, antithrombin III, protein C, protein S, fibr…

Prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism in elderly patients with multimorbidity

2013

none 327 si Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis (TP) is known to reduce venous thromboembolism (VTE) in medical inpatients, but the criteria for risk-driven prescription, safety and impact on mortality are still debated. We analyze data on elderly patients with multimorbidities admitted in the year 2010 to the Italian internal medicine wards participating in the REPOSI registry to investigate the rate of TP during the hospital stay, and analyze the factors that are related to its prescription. Multivariate logistic regression, area under the ROC curve and CART analysis were performed to look for independent predictors of TP prescription. Association between TP and VTE, bleeding and death in …

Oral dabigatran versus enoxaparin for thromboprophylaxis after primary total hip arthroplasty (RE-NOVATE II)

2010

SummaryThis trial compared the efficacy and safety of oral dabigatran, a direct thrombin inhibitor, versus subcutaneous enoxaparin for extended thromboprophylaxis in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. A total of 2,055 patients were randomised to 28–35 days treatment with oral dabigatran, 220 mg once-daily, starting with a half-dose 1–4 hours after surgery, or subcutaneous enoxaparin 40 mg once-daily, starting the evening before surgery. The primary efficacy outcome was a composite of total venous thromboembolism [VTE] (venographic or symptomatic) and death from all-causes. The main secondary composite outcome was major VTE (proximal deep-vein thrombosis or non-fatal pulmonary embol…

Joint use of cardio-embolic and bleeding risk scores in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation

2013

Background Scores for cardio-embolic and bleeding risk in patients with atrial fibrillation are described in the literature. However, it is not clear how they co-classify elderly patients with multimorbidity, nor whether and how they affect the physician's decision on thromboprophylaxis. Methods Four scores for cardio-embolic and bleeding risks were retrospectively calculated for ≥ 65 year old patients with atrial fibrillation enrolled in the REPOSI registry. The co-classification of patients according to risk categories based on different score combinations was described and the relationship between risk categories tested. The association between the antithrombotic therapy received and t…

Superior mesenteric vein thrombosis following open right hemicolectomy and cholecystectomy. Case report

2020

INTRODUZIONE: La SMVT è una seria, rara complicanza della chirurgia addominale. I fattori di rischio sono molteplici, ma scarsamente descritti tanto che i dati sono insufficienti per creare gold standard per la diagnosi e trattamento. La SMVT ha un ampio spettro di presentazioni cliniche, così che spesso la sua diagnosi precoce può essere complessa. CASE REPORT: Una donna obesa di 56 anni con un disordine protrombotico ereditario è stata sottoposta ad emicolectomia destra e colecistectomia open; l’immediato decorso post-operatorio è stato regolare e la paziente è stata dimessa in quinta giornata post-operatoria. In ottava giornata post-operatoria la paziente ha presentato dolore addominale …
