Echo Doppler (ED )Score and D-Dimer (DD) Level in the Evaluation of VTE Recurrence After Anticoagulant Treatment Cessation (VAPRED)
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
First Received: March 10, 2009   No Changes Posted
Sponsored by: University Hospital, Grenoble
Information provided by: University Hospital, Grenoble
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00860106
  Purpose

The purpose of this trial is to perform a prospective multicentric study to determine predictive ED score and D-dimer level in the evaluation of the thromboembolic event recurrence after anticoagulant treatment cessation. The patients are included in the study from the anticoagulant treatment cessation. An ED score and a blood sample are performed at this time and one month later. Then, the patients are followed up by phone for 2 years.


Condition Intervention Phase
Previous Vka Treatment
Previous Proximal VTE
Other: ED, DDimers and phone follow up
Phase IV

MedlinePlus related topics: Blood Thinners

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Prevention, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Uncontrolled, Single Group Assignment, Safety Study
Official Title: Study of Predictive Echo Doppler Score and D-Dimer Level in Evaluation of the Thromboembolic Event Recurrence After Anticoagulant Treatment Cessation.
