NCT05301348

Brief Summary

Subjects with thromboembolic disease or at high-risk for thromboembolic conditions diagnosed with ultrasound or other standard of care techniques will be recruited to estimate the feasibility of a device to detect in vivo CBCs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Comparison of Circulating blood clots detected by PAFC with D-dimer levels in patients with known venous thromboembolic disease - Positive PA peaks

    Measurement of in vivo CBC-associated positive PA peaks in a signal trace of patients who have been diagnosed with conventional methods.

    30 days

  • Comparison of Circulating blood clots detected by PAFC with D-dimer levels in patients with known venous thromboembolic disease - Negative PA peaks

    Measurement of in vivo CBC-associated negative PA peaks in a signal trace of patients who have been diagnosed with conventional methods.

    30 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Relationship between PA peaks and circulating blood clots

    30 days

  • Safety of the PAFC method - skin sensitivity

    30 days

  • Safety of the PAFC method - change in skin property

    30 days

Study Arms (1)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Men and women, 18 years old and older.
  • Evidence of current venous or arterial thromboembolic disease diagnosed by standard of care clinical, radiographic, or laboratory testing or acute ischemic stroke.
  • Informed consent provided by the subject.

You may not qualify if:

  • Pulmonary embolus with a need for mechanical ventilation or other ventilator support (may be on oxygen delivered by nasal cannula or mask at an FiO2 of ≤ 0.40)
  • Acute coronary syndrome (including unstable angina)
  • Significant cardiac arrhythmia (may have atrial fibrillation controlled with medication)
  • Intracardiac thrombus
  • Any embolus or thrombus requiring vascular surgery or interventional radiology to attempt acute embolectomy or thrombectomy
  • Sickle cell disease with vaso-occlusive crisis
  • Sepsis or life-threatening infection
  • Traumatic injury requiring hospitalization (within 30 days prior to enrollment)
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Severe mental illness
  • Other conditions deemed by the investigators to put the subject at greater risk
