简要总结
The appropriate use of thromboprophylaxis in medical patients admitted to hospital can substantially reduce the overall burden of disease due to venous thromboembolism. However, the use of thromboprophylaxis in medical setting appears to be generally poor leaving at-risk patients unprotected.
We aim to analyse the incidence of symptomatic thromboembolic disease following hospitalisation in medical setting and the efficacy of a multicomponent prevention approach in emergency department including systematic evaluation of thrombosis risk factors and remembers of thrombophylaxis indications and modalities for acutely ill medical patients.
Design: cluster randomized interventional study - Observational study at patient level
Setting: 30 French emergency departments
Patients: Patients over 40 years old admitted in participating emergency departments and hospitalized for acute medical reasons.
Main judgment criteria: the rate of symptomatic thromboembolic events and severe haemorrhage during a formal 3-months follow-up after hospital admission in patients hospitalized at least 48 hours.
详细描述
Method:
At the end of an observational period of a week, centers will be randomized in two groups: intervention or current practice. In the intervention group, centers will be provided with poster and pocket cards and, if possible, with a computer decision support system remembering venous thromboembolism prophylactic treatment. We will propose no change in current practice in the other group.
Primary outcome: the rate of symptomatic venous thromboembolic events and severe haemorrhage during a formal 3-months follow-up after hospital admission in patients hospitalized at least 48 hours.
All possible thromboembolic events, severe haemorrhages and deaths will be analysed by an adjudication committee blinded of group assignation. Sudden death without obvious cause according to the adjudication committee will be considered as possible fatal pulmonary embolism.
Sample size: We calculated sample size on the basis of primary outcome. Assuming the participation of 30 centers (15 in each group), an intracluster correlation of 0.01, a rate of symptomatic thromboembolic events or severe haemorrhage of 5% in the current practice group, we need a sample of 16170 patients (8085 in each group) to detect a 1.5 percentage absolute difference between the 2 groups (3.5% in the intervention group) with a power of 80% and a significance level of 5%.

结局指标
主要结局
Symptomatic venous thromboembolic events and severe haemorrhage
时间窗: 3 months
the rate of symptomatic venous thromboembolic events and severe haemorrhage during a formal 3-months follow-up after hospital admission in patients hospitalized at least 48 hours. All possible thromboembolic events, severe haemorrhages and deaths will be analysed by an adjudication committee blinded of group assignation. Sudden death without obvious cause according to the adjudication committee will be considered as possible fatal pulmonary embolism.
