Trial summary

The use of Direct Oral Anti-Coagulants (DOACs) is expanding, but their proper management in patients undergoing endoscopic procedures is still not completely clear. Current European guidelines are based on weak data. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Management of Direct Oral Anti-Coagulants (DOACs) for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Procedures: an Observational, Cross-sectional Study

The use of Direct Oral Anti-Coagulants (DOACs) is expanding, but their proper management in patients undergoing endoscopic procedures is still not completely clear. Current European guidelines are based on weak data. This observational study aims to evaluate the peri-endoscopic management of DOACs in clinical practice and the incidence of adverse events.

Read the detailed description

This observational study is aimed at evaluating the peri-endoscopic management of DOACs in patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal endoscopy procedures and the adverse events (bleeding and thromboembolic events) associated with.

All consecutive patients undergoing elective procedures and providing informed consent will be included.

Primary end-point:

incidence of major bleeding events according to International Society Thrombosis Haemostasis (ISTH) criteria and clinically relevant non-major bleeding events occuring during the endoscopy procedures or within 30 days, according to International Society Thrombosis Haemostasis (ISTH) criteria in patients in which DOACs have been managed according to European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) guidelines

Secondary end points:

  • incidence of major bleeding and clinically relent non-major events in the overall patient population
  • incidence of bleeding events in the overall patient population
  • incidence of thromboembolic events in the overall patient population and in patients in which DOACs have been managed according to ESGE guidelines
  • compliance with ESGE guidelines
Being tested
endoscopic procedure

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?

incidence of hemorrhagic events after endoscopic procedures (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02734316, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Feb 2018.
