This study aims to provide a more rational evidence base for appropriate management for metastatic melanoma in the groin LNs, through assessing the effect of the addition of ipsilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy on patient disease-free survival (DFS),…
1. Determine whether thrombo-elastography (TEG) the occurrence of postoperative blood loss and transfusions can predict after cardiac surgery.2. Determine whether platelet aggregometry (Multiplate and Verify Now) can predict the occurrence of…
(i) identification and cellular characteristics of red blood cells from patients with altered ion homeostasis and delivery of novel and easy-to-use diagnostics for rare anemia*s, for patients with: a) a known primary defect in the ion channels of…
In this study we aim to gain more insights into immune reconstitution of various leukocyte populations after SCT. By application of heavy water labeling we investigate if and how the production- and death rate of leukocytes changes after an SCT.
Frequency of PNH in a selection of patients with DVT. In several publications PNH has been described especially in patients with DVT and younger than 30 years of age and/or with DVT on unusual places.
Primary objective- Short- and mid-term repeatability of mDLS and LSCI measures;- Comparison of blood flow obtained by LSCI and blood flow obtained by mDLS;- Comparison of coagulation status obtained by mDLS and coagulation status assessed by…
The objective of this trial is to investigate whether Eltrombopag added to standard immunosuppressive treatment increases the rate of early (at three months) complete response and blood counts and can be use as front-line therapy for SAA treatment.
Primary objectives:(i) To study the pathophysiology, in particular the role of disturbed ion channel function in hereditary haemolytic anaemia(ii) To define novel intra- and extracellular (bio)markers in hereditary haemolytic anaemia. Secondary…
1. Determine correlation between residual heparinisation and post-operative blood loss after elective cardiac surgery2. Determine the extent to which TEG delta R can predict post-operative blood loss3. Determine the extent to which ACT measurement…
The study will compare the change in cutaneous cellular oxygen availability, measured as mitochondrial PO2 (mitoPO2) between a fluid challenge and a blood transfusion in chronic anemia patients.
We aim to investiga the effect of hypoxia on blood coagulation and the blood cells, particularly on blood cell activation, microparticle release and expression of anionic phospholipids on the cell membrane. We also want to investigate whether the…
Primary Objective: (diagnostic)• Does MRI detect structural changes of haemophilic arthropathy in knees and ankles undetected by the Pettersson score and HJHS? (Research question 1 a & b)Secondary Objective(s): (prognostic)• Can MRI predict…
In this study, we will test which of two feeding strategies for adults during chemotherapy-induced mucositis is optimal with regards to maintaining an optimal body weight, nutritional status, gut mucosal barrier and treatment outcome (including…
Ex vivo study: What is the relation between increasing heparin concentrations and different protamine:heparin-ratio*s with POC-PT values in blood drawn from healthy volunteers?Clinical study in cardiac surgery: Does the POC-PT device correspond with…
The objective of this study is to collect blood samples of women who participated in the ALIFE trial, to test for several DNA-variations as well as anti β2 glycoprotein antibodies, but also to perform overall coagulation assays, such as clot lysis…
This study aims to collect biochemical evidence for the pro-hemostatic capacity of DDAVP in patients with cirrhosis, in order to proceed towards a more rational clinical use of this drug.
More sustained knowledge of the intracellular processes regarding S1P in lymphocytes could be beneficial in modulating specific immune responses in transplantation medicine, autoimmune diseases and sepsis. Therefore, in this study, we will…
The main objective is to determine the effect of different anticoagulant and procoagulant agents on thrombin generation in whole blood and compare it to the effect on thrombin generation in PPP and PRP at different tissue factor concentrations. In…
To investigate if ultra low-dose chest CT may be a better diagnostic tool than chest X-ray on day 1 of febrile neutropenia. Imaging results will be compared with a consensus diagnosis on the cause of febrile neutropenia made by an expert panel.…
To assess the prevalence, severity and impact of arthropathy in patients with moderate or severe VWD and a history of documented DDAVP or clotting factor concentrate treatment for joint bleeds. To compare arthropathy in these patients to age, FVIII…
