BadenAges 18 years+ - NCT04374799RecruitingPhase 3
Heparin vs placebo during cardiac catheterization
This trial tests whether giving heparin (a blood thinner) during a specific type of heart procedure is safer and works better than not giving it. It focuses on patients where the blood supply in the hand’s artery connection is functioning properly.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05117450Recruiting
Compare two dialysis membranes to adjust heparin use
This study compares two dialysis membranes while using a reduced “weaning” plan for the blood thinner heparin during hemodialysis. It aims to see which membrane works better and safely during routine chronic dialysis.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT05209841Recruiting
Heparin versus saline to keep IV line working
This trial compares using heparin (a blood-thinning medicine) versus saline (salt water) to keep a peripheral IV line open and working. It may help reduce line blockage and improve how well IV treatments can be given.
Sant Pere de Ribes, BarcelonaAges 18–100 - NCT05257213Recruiting
Heparin fluid vs gel to prevent scar bands after hysteroscopy
This trial tests two different treatments placed after a hysteroscopy to help prevent scar tissue from forming inside the uterus. If you are having an operative hysteroscopy for infertility or abnormal bleeding, the results may help lower the chance of future uterine adhesions (scar bands).
Sofia, SofiaAges 25–50 - NCT05634057Recruiting
Treating sepsis with a medication plus blood thinner
This trial studies whether combining anisodamine (a medicine for certain gut/smooth-muscle effects) with a low-molecular-weight blood thinner helps treat sepsis. It may be aimed at improving outcomes compared with standard care, but eligibility depends on safety factors like bleeding risk and organ function.
Beijing, ChinaAges 18–110 - NCT05737121RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for bladder pain compared with lidocaine, heparin, or placebo
This Phase 2 trial tests VNX001 to see if it helps people with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) compared with its separate ingredients (lidocaine and heparin) or a placebo (inactive treatment). You may be eligible if you have had IC/BPS for months and recently had a moderate-to-severe bladder pain flare.
