Venous thromboembolism predicts poor prognosis in irresectable pancreatic cancer patients.
BACKGROUND The aim was to investigate the outcomes associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE) among irresectable pancreatic cancer patients. METHODS This is a follow-up study of consecutive irresectable cancer patients, treated and followed up in clinical trials between December 2001 and December 2004 in order to evaluate the prognostic impact of symptomatic VTE on clinical outcomes, such a...
متن کاملRivaroxaban versus enoxaparin for treatment of patients with nonhematologic cancer with venous thromboembolism a randomized clinial trial
Background: Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin (LMWH) is recommended as the first-line treatment in patients with active cancer and venous thromboembolism (VTE), but many patients prefer to take oral anticoagulants and non-injectable forms with more reasonable price. Venous thromboembolism is a very common comorbidity in patients with cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effic...
متن کاملTreatment of venous thromboembolism in cancer patients.
The occurrence of venous thromboembolism complicates the management of the patient with malignant disease because of the need for anticoagulant therapy. Cancer patients have an ongoing thrombotic stimulus due to the underlying cancer and its associated treatments, but are also considered to be at increased risk for anticoagulant-related bleeding. In recent years, the results of clinical trials ...
متن کاملVenous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Cancer Patients
Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) is a common disease, comprising the life-threatening pulmonary embolism (PE) and its precursor deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In view of the clinically silent nature of VTE; the incidence, prevalence and mortality rates are probably under estimated (Kniffin et al., 1994). Although VTE is a common disease, fortunately it is preventable; identifying high risk patients an...
متن کاملPrediction of venous thromboembolism in cancer patients.
The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is increased in cancer patients. To improve prediction of VTE in cancer patients, we performed a prospective and observational cohort study of patients with newly diagnosed cancer or progression of disease after remission. A previously developed risk scoring model for prediction of VTE that included clinical (tumor entity and body mass index) and laborat...
