No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to further evaluate and adjust the photoacoustic flow cytometry device and its use in detecting circulating emboli.

Study Design: Cohort 1: Normal healthy volunteers will be enrolled to further adjust the device settings. Cohort 2: Use the Phatoacoustic flow cytometry (PAFC) to detect circulating emboli in vivo in patients with venous thromboembolism at diagnosis, during and after anticoagulation therapy.

Conditions

  • Venous Thromboembolism

Interventions

DEVICE

Photoacoustic flow cytometry device

The device for subjects enrolled on cohort 2 will be completed on day 0 (immediately after venous thromboembolism diagnosis and prior to anticoagulation therapy), day 7 ± 3 days after initiation of anticoagulation therapy, one week ± 3 days after completion of planned anticoagulation therapy and one month ± 3 days after completion of planned anticoagulation therapy. Anticoagulation therapy is part of the patient's normal standard of care and is not part of this study however data from what therapy was received may be captured. Patients will then be followed in hematology clinic to monitor the venous thromboembolism recurrence every 3 months for one year.
