Study Summary

This trial is studying if a new medication is effective in treating patients with venous thromboembolism.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults aged 8 to 21 who have had a blood clot in the leg (deep vein thrombosis) or lung (pulmonary embolism). They must be able to undergo MRI scans, participate in exercise tests, and follow instructions. Those with recent surgery, immobility due to casts or fractures, developmental delays that affect understanding instructions, or congenital heart disease are not eligible.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is examining how blood clots affect the ability of these patients to exercise and their muscle energy production. It involves non-invasive tests like MRI scans of muscles at rest and after exercise, questionnaires about health status, and measuring physical fitness through bicycle ergometry along with routine lab panels.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There may be minimal side effects associated with this trial as it primarily involves diagnostic procedures rather than medication. Possible side effects include discomfort from exercising if not used to it and mild reactions such as claustrophobia during an MRI scan.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is there still capacity for participants in this trial?

"According to the clinicaltrials.gov page, this medical trial is no longer accepting patients at this time: it was first posted on February 6th 2020 and last updated on January 21st 2022. However, there are 213 other trials currently looking for volunteers in related fields of research."

Answered by AI

What are the fundamental goals of this medical experiment?

"The primary metric to be evaluated with the aid of Arterial Spin labeling MRI will be coagulation markers, while secondary parameters include OSA-18 Sleep apnea Questionnaire, Godin Leisure Time Activity Questionnaire and Exercise Intolerance (the latter being measured through Cardiopulmonary Exercise testing). Data collection for all these outcomes is set to take place between 3-6 months post diagnosis."

Answered by AI

Am I eligible to take part in this research program?

"This research is targeting 30 individuals aged 8 to 21 who are suffering from a pulmonary embolism or lower extremity deep venous thrombosis. To be eligible for participation, patients must satisfy all of the previously mentioned criteria."

Answered by AI

Does the study limit participation to individuals 60 years or younger?

"The criteria for participation in this medical trial is between the ages of 8 and 21. There are 14 studies dedicated to minors while 202 cater toward elderly patients over 65."
